Something like very large lima beans. I forget what they called them in Valencia...

I'm pretty sure it's drops if something like aioli. Beans usually don't have these pointy tops

Looks tasty but I'm confused - isn't paella a rice dish? This looks more like marinara sauce.

Definitely aioli. Those would be about 2" in diameter. Even the gigante bean, the world's largest bean, isn't that large.

If you zoom in there is plenty of rice there. It is a lot darker than other paella I've seen before but does look nom.

Waiting for the spanish to come point out you can't mix seafood and meat in a real paella.

You're right now that I zoom in. The Valencian version does have some sort of lima, but that isn't what this is.

It's a shame though. They could be as a god on Lemmy if they did have beans that size.
