Description

This stewed cucumber chorizo pan is a hearty and spicy dish that is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner. The combination of the light sweetness of the stewed cucumbers and the piquant spiciness of the chorizo is simply irresistible. I especially like to make this dish in the summer when stewed cucumbers are in season. The potatoes and peppers make the dish a complete meal. A dollop of crème fraîche rounds everything off perfectly and provides a creamy consistency. If you like it even spicier, you can add an extra chili. Simply delicious!
