Beverly E. is a friend from church, who visits from N.J. during the summer months. She made this for a church luncheon recently. It is so good and a very tasty change from the usual beef stew I make. I made it before she e-mailed me the actual recipe, and it was fine; but this is the recipe which I think was delicious when I had it at the luncheon. My husband enjoyed it, and it is even better the second day!

How To Make spanish stew - beverly e.'s recipe

Cut the sausage and boil to remove some of the fat. In another pan place potatoes,carrots, an onion and cover with water and bring to a boil.

Step 2

Add a bay leaf, oregano, chorizos and cut-up ham with a small amount of whole cloves to the pot of vegetables. Pour in a "little beer"! Let it cook until vegetables are soft. Add a can or two of chick peas and simmer.
Step 3

In a small pan heat olive oil and one or two cloves of garlic, let it cook a short time. Then add the tomato paste, a half or a whole can, depending on your taste.
Step 4

Let it simmer twenty minutes, covered, and then add to the pot with the vegetables and the meat. Cook for about an hour, slowly.
