    Absolutely delicious!! Well done!

    Made only some adjustments in terms of quantity.

    Used 220g of chorizo, 300g of potato, 280g of kale, 4 garlic cloves and only 15 ml of olive oil. (My kale and chorizo were frozen, which were defrosted in the varoma and chorizo defrosted in the fry pan). Just to show you how practical this recipe is.

    Had it with garlic bread. tmrc_emoticons.)

    Very easy, simple, quick, yummo! Adding this recipe to my favourites!
