Patatas a la Riojana
(Spanish stew of potatoes with chorizo, from the Rioja province)
Ingredients (serves 4):
1 kg potatoes, in chunks
chorizo sausage(about 40 cm) in chunks
3 tomatoes, diced
1 big onion, diced
3 garlic cloves, diced
olive oil
1 laurel leaf
1 tablespoon of paprika powder
Preparations:
Fry diced onion and garlic in a generous amount of olive oil. When these are soft add the chorizo chunks, the diced tomatoes and the paprika powder and stir.
Now cut the potatoes in chunks. The "traditional way" is to cut the potato half way and then break off the chunk. This will help the potatoes absorb the flavour of the sauce better.
Add the potatoes to the pot, stir for a minute to distribute the flavours and then top it off with water. Add enough to just cover the potatoes.
Leave on the fire with the lid slightly open for about 30-45 minutes, till the potatoes are soft enough to your liking.
