What shall I make for dinner?
Then it's a trip to the shops to see what's either the quickest thing to make, what's the cheapest or what do I fancy the most....I'm sure we all ask ourselves those questions without adding other things into the equation like: diet, restriction, nutrition, healthy eating and special needs for yourself or family.
The problem is at least for me, although I wouldn't call myself a foodie, I do think about variety and deliciousness and I want to sit down and really enjoy my food and that every mouthful I have delights my taste buds leaving me with a yummy feeling.
Today's Dinner: Potatoes and Chorizo
This is a simple one pot dish.
1. Fry a chopped onion and a clove of chopped garlic in a tablespoon of oil until translucent.
2. Add an odd tomato you have in the fridge and the little Spanish frying chorizo ( you can find these in supermarkets like Sainsbury's and Tesco in there cold meat counter. I got mine from a European butchers that stock a larger frying chorizo and sells it loose, so you can just buy whatever amount you need).
3. Add chopped parsley and potatoes.
4. Add cold water,(salt if you like. I didn't as these chorizos have lots of seasoning). Boil for 20 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked.
5. The last two minute I laid a roughly chopped roasted red pepper on top of the potatoes to warm it up.
6. Drain or remove the potatoes and chorizo with a slotted spoon to your dish and I topped it with some watercress but you can add more parsley.
Just delicious!

Looks delicious and I can't wait to try it!
