2 large fresh fennel bulbs (about 1 1/2 pounds total), trimmed, each cut into 8 wedges; 2 tablespoons chopped fronds reserved
12 ounces baby carrots (from about 4 bunches), trimmed, peeled
8 ounces turnips, peeled, cut into 3/4-inch pieces (about 1 1/2 cups)
8 ounces 1 1/2-inch red-skinned new potatoes, halved
1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon saffron threads, crushed
1 teaspoon salt
1 onion, chopped
4 plum tomatoes, chopped, seeds and juices reserved
2 1/4 cups arborio rice or medium-grain rice

2 cups water
3/4 cup dry white wine
1 pound asparagus, trimmed, cut into 1-inch pieces

This paella was a disaster! The rice was burnt, and the seafood was overcooked. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I was disappointed with this paella. The rice was undercooked, and the vegetables were mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This paella was a bit too salty for my taste, but overall it was a good dish. The vegetables were cooked perfectly, and the seafood was fresh and flavorful. I would make it again, but I would use less salt.

This was my first time making paella, and it turned out great! The instructions were easy to follow, and the dish was delicious. I especially loved the crispy bits of rice at the bottom of the pan.

I'm not a big fan of seafood, but I loved this paella! The vegetables were so fresh and flavorful, and the rice was cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this again, even without the seafood.
