A magic ingredient!

Chorizo - the magic ingredients

As well as the obvious everyday essentials such as eggs, milk and butter, you’ll always find one ingredient lurking in my fridge – chorizo.

It’s magical! You only need a tiny amount but it’ll perk up the most boring of meals and keeps well for ages.

I often throw it into ‘fridge fried rice’ – a concoction created to use up any leftover veg, fish or meat, sprinkled with a few liberal dashes of soy sauce. For something similar check out our Chorizo Fried Rice recipe.

And just recently I’ve fried just a few slices, added a couple of handfuls of frozen peas and some veg stock, whizz with a stick blender and voila it makes THE most delicious pea soup.

Here I’ve shared a recipe from this year’s Dairy Diary which uses chorizo in a scrummy chicken pie – it’s just gorgeous comfort food. I’m treating myself to a generous slice after a hike in the Lakeland Fells this week – perfect!
