Curly Kale, Chorizo and Rice Stew
This stew is fantastically tasty and very simple to make, made with a winning combination of kale, chorizo and basmati rice.
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 25 minutes
Servings: 4 people
Preparation
In a medium saucepan, sauté the chorizo with a tiny amount of olive oil until golden and crisp; about 5 minutes.
Remove from the pan and discard the fat.
Add the olive oil, onion, carrot and garlic, season and sauté for 5 minutes.
Add the rice, paprika, and stock, then simmer for 10 minutes until the rice is cooked.
Add the chorizo.
In a separate pan, boil some water.
Blanch the kale for 2 minutes, drain and rinse in cold water – this helps the kale keep its bright colour and taste.
Drain again, then add to the stew.
Serve in large bowls.
