Olive oil is added to the pan, brought up to temperature over an open fire and then the rice is added and sauteed. The other ingrediants are then added in order of the time required to cook them. Those requiring the most time are added first and those requiring less time are added in such a way that every thing is completely cooked at the same time or as close as possible. It is a group operation, the cooking is generally done by the men present, and generous amounts of wine are both imbibed and added to the paella if desired.
