Chorizo al Sidro (Chorizo with Cider) Recipe

It's been a little while since I last posted a recipe on this blog. There are many reasons for this, like being busy on my main website, and moving..

Still I'm back now, and to celebrate the addition of a new Spanish recipes section to my main Celtnet site, today I have a classic Spanish recipe for you, a snack or appetizer of chorizo sausage cooked in cider. Simple to make, yet great to serve with drinks.

Chorizo al Sidro (Chorizo with Cider) Recipe

Origin: Spain
Serves: 4-6
Chorizo cooked in cider served as an appetizer

Ingredients:

4 chorizo sausages
1 bottle (500ml [2 cups]) of cider
olive oil

Method:

Slice the chorizo sausages into rounds about 5mm (1/4 in) thick.

Heat about 4 tbsp olive oil in a frying pan. Add the chorizo pieces and fry gently until they are lightly browned on both sides and have begun to release their paprika-coloured oil. Add the cider and bring just to a boil.

Reduce to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for a few minutes, stirring frequently.

Turn into a warmed bowl and serve with cocktail sticks.
