Method
step 1
Heat the oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat and fry the onion for 5 mins until softened slightly. Add the garlic, chorizo and paprika and fry for 1 min more until fragrant and the chorizo is starting to crisp. Tip in the canned tomatoes, stock, pearl barley and harissa.
step 2
Bring the mixture to the boil, cover with a lid, reduce the heat and simmer for 25 mins, stirring occasionally. Tip in the cherry tomatoes and simmer for 10-15 mins more until the pearl barley is tender, with just a little bite. Serve in bowls.
