      Porotos Granados

      Porotos Granados. Is it a soup? Is it a stew? No-one will ever know. This version of the Spanish dish is confused but happy. Like me a lot of the time. I guess you could call it a chunky soup. Not that it particularly matters. Why do we always feel as though we have to define everything? What if you don’t want to be the ‘girl next door’ or the ‘crazy bitch’ or the ‘cute geek’? This dish could be feeling the exact same thing. It doesn’t want to be pinned down by labels, nuh-uh! It’s its own individual self. Quirks and all. It’s sweet from the butternut squash and corn, slightly spicy from the smoked paprika, creamy from the sweet potato and borlotti beans and just damn delectable with the addition of oregano and caraway seeds. And Asparagus is in season, big yay! Sure, you’re always going to face the conundrum of whether to eat it with a spoon or a fork, but if that’s the biggest issue you face for the day I think you can handle it. Why, try both! No, not one in each hand…ah you know what I mean. Continue reading →

      A word of warning about this stew. Do not, and I repeat do not, put the pot in the middle of the kitchen table whilst you are having dinner. If you do, you will sit there for hours slowly consuming its contents. This is addictive stuff. I made that mistake the other night and it took a lot of willpower to get up and put the leftovers in the fridge. Even then I couldn’t help sneaking an extra few mouthfuls. In the end I guess it isn’t too serious a crime if you eat more than you really should – it’s healthy to a tee. The kind of dish that makes you ‘glow’ afterwards. Continue reading →
