Ingredients

  • 12 g garlic
  • 150 g onions
  • 5 g fresh parsley
  • 150 g green bell pepper
  • 1000 g potatoes suitable for stewing
  • 20 g jarred mild choricero pepper pulp
  • 900 ml water
  • 0.4 g dried bay leaves
  • 20 ml olive oil
  • 3 g fine salt
  • 300 g raw mild fresh cooking chorizo

Preparation

  1. Wash and deseed the pepper. Peel the potatoes, the onions and the garlic. Chop the onion and garlic and dice the washed pepper. Slice the chorizo about 1 cm thick. Cut the potatoes into pieces about 3 cm across, finishing each cut by snapping the last part with the blade: the rough surface helps thicken the broth.

    12 g garlic
    150 g onions
    150 g green bell pepper
    1000 g potatoes suitable for stewing
    300 g raw mild fresh cooking chorizo
    • knife
    • vegetable board
    • meat board
  2. Heat the oil in a casserole. Cook the onion and pepper over medium heat for 7 min, stirring. Add the garlic and chorizo and stir for 3 min. The chorizo begins to release its fat but is not yet cooked through.

    20 ml olive oil
    • casserole
    • spoon
  3. Add the potatoes, measured water, bay leaves and salt. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook gently for about 35 min until the potatoes are tender and the chorizo fully cooked. Gently swirl the casserole occasionally rather than stirring vigorously with a spoon. Cook longer if needed.

    0.4 g dried bay leaves
    3 g fine salt

    • oven gloves
  4. Gently stir in the choricero pulp and simmer for 2 min. The broth should lightly coat the potatoes. If still too thin, crush some potato pieces against the side and fold them back in to thicken it. Remove the bay leaves. Wash and chop the parsley and scatter over to serve.
