CHORIZO STEW WITH LENTILS

ingredients

  • 1 medium onion
  • 300g Nonna Elide Salsiccia Smoked Paprika (or Nonna Elide Chorizo Mince)
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika powder (pimentón)
  • 400g green lentils (uncooked)
  • 250g potatoes
  • 200g carrots
  • 3-4 garlic cloves
  • Water
  • Olive oil
  • Salt
  • Black pepper

Here's how

  • Rinse the lentils in a colander under cold running water.
  • Peel and dice the potatoes and carrots. Slice the chorizo.
  • Heat a large pot with a splash of olive oil over medium heat. Finely chop the onion and fry it together with the pimentón until the onion is soft and smells wonderful.
  • Add the lentils, sliced chorizo, garlic cloves, potatoes and carrots.
  • Pour in enough water to cover the ingredients, plus a little more for a thick stew — or more if you prefer a looser consistency.
  • Bring to the boil, then lower to medium heat and let it simmer uncovered until the lentils are soft, about 35–40 minutes.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with a piece of good bread to scoop up the rich, hearty broth.
