Potato and chorizo casserole


I don’t know about you, but at this time of the year I crave a lot for soups and stews in general. Winter is almost here! So to be prepared, today I bring you this dish that is really easy to prepare.



POTATO AND CHORIZO CASSEROLE (serves 2)

2 medium potatoes
1 onion
1 small green pepper
2 cloves of garlic
1 teaspoon of paprika
½ chorizo
1 bay leaf
Olive oil
Salt

Finely chop the onion, pepper and garlic, and sauté everthing in a pot with a splash of olive oil and the bay leaf.

Meanwhile peel the potatoes and crack them with the knife into pieces. This way, we get a thicker consistency.

Add the chopped chorizo​​, potato and paprika and cook for a couple of minutes. Then cover with water and cook over low heat for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Add salt to taste and serve.

Notes:

- The cooking time depends on the type of potato. If you see that the potatoes are tender but the dish has become very "watery" you can smash several pieces of potato to thicken the sauce.

- This dish is also very good if you add a bit of cayenne pepper.
