Problems problems

being a vegetarian is a big Problem

I was checking for Spanish cuisine and most of it is sea food or meat..

I think i would have to manage chicken because if I dont get any vegetarian foods I will try out their cuisines..

I am okay with chicken and a few types of sea food(mainly diced and fried fish in a batter and err had lobster once)

I cant eat a huge chunk and if it's still got eyes I might not be able to go near it..

Squids and Calamari(no way so err looks slimey)

The only thing which looked really intersting to me in Spanish Cuisine is churro[CHOOR-roh]specialty consists of a sweet-dough spiral that is deep-fried and eaten like a doughnut. Churros are usually coated with a mixture of cinnamon and confectioners' (or granulated) sugar and served with HOT Chocolate

Spanish food is not just meat. There are quite a few omelettes e.g. 'tortilla espanola' or 'tortilla patatas' which are with potatoes and sometimes other vegetables.

Fried squid is NOT slimy but crisp. I can recommend Spanish fried fish.

Some tapas are based on just vegetables or cheese.

  I can try deep fried Fish and chicken.. I am just not used to eating different types of meat..
  
  my meat consumption is limited to Mutton(goat meat) chicken and lobster as well as a certain type of local fish which i used to have as a kid. it was called Fish pakora(fritters) deep fried in a spicy batter and served with Chutney

    I like fish pakoras too though have never tried making them. If you like them you will probably also like Andalucian fried fish. The batter is more like tempura than a pakora one - light and made with wheat flour and egg.
    
    Paella is also nice as Jack said...

      Ooh fish Pakoras is easy.. I will email the recipe
      
      hmm i feel Adventurous and want to try local foods (just not the ones which dont appeal to my eyes and nose )
      
      I had a version of Paella in UK it seems like Indian Biryani(of sorts)

Hey there! I'm Spanish although I've been living in England most of my life. It can be a problem being a vegetarian in Spain as they love their meat there - especially pork. I don't actually know any Spanish vegetarians!

Try tortilla, it's just a potato omelette, sometimes with peppers, onions etc or the delicious croquetas which can be potato, cheese or vegetable cooked in breadcrumbs. You will find some nice things to sample I'm sure.

Have fun and try some new things!
