This is a very traditional Spanish dish, which is as delicious as it is simple. The garbanzos (chickpeas) make for a hugely satisfying meal and are perfect for soaking up the flavours of the red peppers, chorizo and paprika, giving you a rich and filling rustic Spanish stew. This wonderful dish has strong associations with the town of Burgos in northern Spain.

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-bottom pan. GentlyΒ sautΓ© the chopped onions, garlic and chilli with a healthy dose of pepper.
  2. When the onions have softened a little, add the chopped chorizo and continue to sautΓ© until cooked through, then add the piquillo peppers.
  3. Throw in half a glass of Rioja, and follow with the garbanzos and the paprika. Leave to think for 5 minutes or so.
  4. Make 3/4 pint of beef stock and add to the pan with the paprika. Simmer very gently for at least 30 minutes and add the coriander a few minutes before serving.
  5. Serve in big bowls with some crusty bread for dipping and mopping up!
