Method

  • step 1

    Cut the chorizo into 3cm thick slices. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Cook the chorizo for 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally until the edges start to crisp and it has released its red oil.

  • step 2

    Tip the chickpeas into the pan and cook for a couple of minutes until hot. Add the peppers and cook for a few minutes until everything's juicy. Remove from the heat, stir in the coriander, ladle into two bowls and top each with a spoonful of yogurt.

RECIPE TIPS
GIVE IT A TWIST

Replace the chickpeas with canned butter beans or cannellini beans, or try replacing the peppers with a jar of grilled aubergine slices. You could also omit the chickpeas completely and serve this as a meaty sauce for pasta.

Super quick and tasty. Would swap the peppers for fresh or toast my own time as they were a little vinegary. Rather than draining the oil as some did we mopped our bowls with crusty bread which I would highly recommend.

Quick, easy and delicious. Just one small point - I think the chorizo should be cut into 3mm slices. 3cm is over an inch!

Unless he/she is joking, Mash's comment is pretty silly. What else do you expect to find in a recipe called warm chickpea, chorizo and pepper salad? There are plenty of…
