Chorizo And Meatball Pasta
- 100 grams chorizo, sliced
- 18 meatballs, brought or homemade
- 3 tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
- 1 onion, chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, diced
- 1 bay leaf
- 400 grams savoy cabbage, chopped
- 1 fresh chili, sliced or diced
- 100 ml chicken stock
- According to packet instructions make the pasta.
- Add onion salt to the water for taste.
- In the mean time fry the chorizo in a saucepan (I used a wok).
- Then remove the chorizo pieces and set aside.
- In the chorizo juices, add the olive oil, bay leaf, garlic and chili to the saucepan (I didnt have fresh chili's so on this occasion I used dried) and fry for 4-5 minutes or until the onion has softened.
- Then add the cabbage, pepper and salt and fry until cooked about 5 minutes.
- Continue stirring often so it doesn't burn
- Then add the stock and cook for a further 10 minutes or until cabbage is done.
- To prepare the meatballs.
- Add another 2-4 tablespoons of olive oil in another saucepan and heat.
- Then add the meatballs and a pinch of salt until they have cooked.
- Normally takes about 10-15 minutes to cook through.
- You can also seal them in the frying pan then transfer to a preheated oven to finish cooking.
- When the meatballs are almost done drain the pasta well.
- Then add to the pan with the vegetables.
- Add the meatballs and fry for a further 5 minutes or so to infuse the flavours.
- Lastly add the chorizo.
