Note: The chorizo used in Fried Bread and Chorizo is the Spanish type, which is like a salami.

 Spanish Chorizo

Ingredients

• 7 oz Spanish-type chorizo, casing removed
• 4 thick slices of day-old bread
• olive oil for frying
• 3–4 cloves of garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp flat-leaved parsley
• Spanish paprika

Method

1. Slice the chorizo into 1/2-inch pieces. Cut the bread into 1/2-in cubes.
2. Heat oil in a heavy frying pan and fry the garlic until just browned. Add the bread cubes and fry until golden brown. Continue frying and add the chorizo. Cook for a minute or two to heat through. Remove and drain  the bread and chorizo.
3. Heap the bread-chorizo mixture in a warmed serving bowl. Scatter the parsley and a little Spanish paprika over the top. Serve the Fried Bread and Chorizo with toothpicks so guests can spear one bread cube and one slice of chorizo.
