who only by moving can balance

It occurred to me, this afternoon, while I was in the process of making Very Easy Paella for dinner, that paella as a dish bears at least a passing resemblance to pila[f|u|v].

Apparently it's not a cognate, though! Pilaf is from Sanskrit, via Turkish, with a meaning along the lines of "cooked rice", whereas paella is from Latin via Spanish and refers to the shape of the cooking dish -- with patella i.e. the kneecap as a doublet, again because of the shape.
