ERRE & Urrechu Jakarta introduces its first-ever signature paella collection, served in three distinguished dishes.
From the Basque Country to Jakarta, ERRE & Urrechu Jakarta at Gran Meliá Jakarta continues to uphold the spirit of Spanish gastronomy through bold flavours and fire-driven craftsmanship. This time, the restaurant celebrates Spain’s most iconic communal dish: paella.
Originating from Valencia in the mid-19th century, paella began as a humble farmer’s meal cooked over an open flame using rice and fresh local ingredients. Over time, it evolved into a national symbol of togetherness, with its name derived from the wide, shallow pan that allows the rice to absorb deep flavours and form the prized socarrat, the caramelised crust at the bottom.
At ERRE & Urrechu Jakarta, this Spanish classic is honoured through a selection of signature creations that capture the dish’s essence while adding a modern touch. The restaurant introduces three new paella dishes designed for sharing and celebrating the convivial spirit of Spanish dining.
The Arroz Meloso De Setas Con Trufa Negra Y Queso Manchego offers creamy rice with wild mushrooms, black truffle and Manchego snow, presenting an earthy, comforting dish rich in umami. The Paella De Mariscos Con Lomos De Pargo Rojo Soasados Y Alioli De Gambas showcases Mediterranean vibrance with golden seafood rice, flame-seared red snapper and prawn aioli. Meanwhile, the Paella De Erretxuleta A la Parrilla Con Alioli De Tuetano Y Chips De Ajo brings a smoky indulgence with grilled txuleta steak, bone marrow aioli and crispy garlic chips.
Head Chef Alejandro García Martín explains further about the paella that he brings to ERRE & Urrechu Jakarta as a celebration to Spanish tradition.
“Paella is more than a recipe, it is tradition, community and celebration on a plate. At ERRE & Urrechu Jakarta, we wanted to bring that spirit to Jakarta, while also adding our own fire-driven touch. Each paella is designed to create moments worth sharing, layered with flavors that are both comforting and memorable,” he shared.
