Spicy chorizo and pasta stew
40 min
My kids love this on a cold winter's evening with some fresh crusty bread to soak up the juices. This recipe lends itself well to any mixture of vegetables. This is just a basic recipe plus if you like it a little spicier, add some crushed chillies with the vegetables. Enjoy.

- Heat some olive in a saucepan, add chorizo and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add finely chopped vegetables, garlic and oregano and thyme and continue to cook for a further 2-3 minutes until vegetables have softened slightly.
- Add passata and stock. Bring to the boil and simmer for approximately 10 minutes. Add pasta and cannellini beans and allow pasta to cook completely. A lot of the liquid will soak up at this stage and the stew will have thickened.
- Season and serve.
