Ingredients

2 ounces dried chickpeas

3/4 pound boneless pork, cut into small dice

One 4x8-inch piece of tripe cut into 3/4-inch by 2-inch strips

Salt

Pepper

2 tablespoons flour

1/4 cup olive oil

1/2 pound onions, peeled and minced

8 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup white wine

1 28-ounce can of tomatoes with liquid, crushing the tomatoes by hand

1 teaspoon hot Spanish paprika

1/2 pound whole chorizo

Directions

  1. Soak the dried chickpeas overnight. Salt and pepper the tripe and pork and toss them with the flour. Heat the olive oil in a stewpot. Add tripe and pork. Cook until meats are lightly browned on all sides, about 10 minutes.
  2. Add the onions, garlic, white wine. Scrape up the browned bits, then add the can of tomatoes with liquid, crushing the tomatoes by hand, the hot Spanish paprika, and the drained chick-peas. Stir to combine. Simmer over low heat for 4 1/2 hours, checking occasionally to make sure meats are submerged in liquid, adding more liquid if necessary.
  3. After 4 1/2 hours add 1/2 pound whole chorizo and cook 1/2 hour more. Remove the chorizo and slice it. Return it to the pot and serve.
  4. Recommended drink: Pelligrini Carignane, Alexander Valley Old Vines, 1994

This is amazing - I had this dish in the north of Spain and tried this recipe myself and it came out wonderfully. You can use canned chick peas to cut out the soak time, and if you don't like tripe, you can leave that out. I used pork sirloin - an inexpensive but nice cut. Do splurge on real Spanish chorizo - it's a hard sausage like a pepperoni rather than the crumbly Mexican chorizo you find in stores in America.
