Classic Spanish Chorizo & Potato Stew | Patatas a la Riojana Recipe

[@welshtoro3256]

I make a variation of this dish regularly. I cook the chorizo first and then remove it so you can fry the onion and garlic in the chorizo oil. Add the pimenton and potato before adding water just as Albert does. Leave for 20 minutes and then put the chorizo back in with a load of chopped up, spoon sized, dark cabbage like a Savoy. Cook until the cabbage is done and then break up the potato with a masher to thicken it but still have chunky bits. I'm sure it's nice with the pepper but I think the cabbage gives it a warmer, more earthy and traditional element.

[@v.b.l.6498]

Sounds good, even if the cabbage seems like a bit of a german touch.

[@welshtoro3256]

@@v.b.l.6498 Hi Victor, give it a go, I can assure you it tastes very rustic Spanish. The chorizo takes care of that. One final thing which I forgot to mention is a dollop of olive oil on top before serving. It's a classic peasant dish which can be modified a number of ways. I've done it with alubias (Spanish beans) instead of potato but I think the potato comes out on top.

[@merk9569]

@@welshtoro3256 Have you ever used fresh spinach instead of cabbage? I don't care for either but I can sneak spinach in rich favorable stews and soups. Packed with protein, vitamins and minerals.

[@welshtoro3256]

@@merk9569 I haven't used spinach but I have tried a variety of greens such as cavolo nero and chard. The cabbage works best because it maintains texture and flavour. You would have to use a huge amount of spinach but it will wilt and lose that bit of crunch. At the end of the day this is a dish open to quite a lot of personal touches without any hard or fast rules. You could substitute the potato with Spanish white beans (good but not as good as the potato imo).

[@marthay.higuera9723]

I added a can of drained garbanzos (chick peas). It came out great. Next time I will add a can of drained cannellini beans & a little spinach. I did sauté the chorizo first in the olive oil. It was better the next day.

[@tamarasersansie2211]

I have made this twice this week. It is so delicious. My husband said it was the perfect stew. Granted, I didn't have Spanish chorizo. I did Mexian chorizo. I sauteed the veggies for bit, then added the Mexican chorizo (about 2 tbsp) and mixed it with the veggies. I let that all cook together. I only had turkey smoked sausage, so I added that to the veggies and potatoes. The Kiva Paprika is so good. This will be a regular go to recipe!

[@dmytryk7887]

This has been one of my favorite meals since I came across a similar recipe a few years ago. The recipe I use doesn't have the green pepper, suggests peeling the chorizo and using it larger chunks before cooking, and breaking the potatoes into chunks using a solid fork or knife so that the edges are not smooth (this makes the liquid part starchier, mashing a few chunks and mixing them in has a similar effect). As others have mentioned it is not a fancy dish, so don't worry about varying the recipe. But it is really delicious if you keep it simple.

[@SoItGoesCAL34]

I made a variant of this. The one with chickpeas, and potatoes, and chorizo. It was hasty and I would have done it in another way. It still turned out great. Added both paprika and saffron.

First off… the way that the potatoes are prepared is specific to this dish. You make a small cut and crack them so that they are in thumb sized pieces on naturally occurring splits. This allows the starchiness to infuse into the stew and makes it easier to smash in the serving by the individual person.
