Cooking Instructions

40 mins
  1. 1

    Heat the olive oil with the chorizo until it has gone crispy on a medium heat. Then remove the chorizo from the oil.

  2. 2

    Next add the onion, garlic and bay leaves and cook until onion is softened. About 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the chopped tomatos, paste, garlic and onion salt and let it simmer for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. 4

    Add the parsley into the sauce, simmer for another 1-2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add the pork to the sauce and simmer with lid on for 2-3 minutes.

  6. 6

    Add the beer in and stir well. Simmer for 5-10 minutes. Stirring occasionally.

  7. 7

    Crumble the stock cube and add to the pan. Add the chilli.

  8. 8

    Next add in the kidney beans. Don't add the liquid in the can but set it aside in case pork starts during cooking. Simmer for a further 5 minutes.

  9. 9

    Break the spaghetti up and add to the pork. Replace lid and simmer until the pasta is cooked. About 10-15 minutes. I added the water from kidney beans plus around an extra 50ml of cold water as it started to dry during cooking. Stir regularly as it will stick to the pan. Add more water if needs be.

  10. 10

    Add in the sliced frankfurters and stir. Simmer for a further 2-3 minutes.

  11. 11

    Check seasoning before adding the potatoes.

  12. 12

    I had left over potatoes so I added them to the pork but you can omit or add fresh potatoes when you add in the pork. Cut the potatoes into chunks and add them to the pork. Simmer for another 1-2 minutes and turn heat off.
