I love to learn about other cultures and enjoy researching, reading about and preparing the recipes that captivate me most. That's how I got to know this traditional Spanish stew made with chorizo, potatoes and carrots. Its preparation is quite simple, but the result is delicious. My Spanish neighbor told me this stew is typically prepared in a pot over low heat, but we live at a faster pace in these modern times, and making it that way can be cumbersome. As such, we've had to reduce the cooking time.
