Method

  1. In a medium saucepan, sauté the chorizo with a tiny amount of olive oil until golden and crisp; about 5 mins. Remove from the pan and discard the fat. Add the olive oil, onion, carrot and garlic, season and sauté for 5 mins. Add the rice, paprika, and stock, then simmer for 10 mins until the rice is cooked. Add the chorizo.
  2. In a separate pan, boil some water. Blanch the kale for 2 mins, drain and rinse in cold water – this helps the kale keep its bright colour and taste. Drain again, then add to the stew. Serve in large bowls.
