Chorizo Stroganov

I love Beef Stroganov and when I was younger I loved Sausage Stroganov. The sausage version is typically made with a Swedish "sausage" called Falukorv, with an abnormal low meatcontent, it can't be called a sausage at all. It has a really mild flavour and is really cheap, but...ever since I saw green Falukorv at my school lunch at the canteen, I haven't eaten it until a few weeks ago when I bought a ready made Sausage Stroganov for lunch at work, and it tasted nice. But Falukorv...doesn't taste anything. 

With chorizo and an optional dash of hot sauce, that's another story!

Chorizo Stroganov, 4 persons

1 chorizo sausage
1 onion
1 red bell pepper
1 can red kidney beans (225 g drained)
1 can chopped tomates (400 g)
3 tablespoons hot chili sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup, if needed
dash hot sauce 
salt
3 tablespoons cream


Slice the chorizo, chop the onion and cut the bell pepper in smaller pieces. Drain the beans and rinse them with water, drain. Put olive oil in a hot pan. Add the chorizo and the onion. Fry for a few minutes. Add the bell pepper and fry until onion is brown. Add the beans and the chopped tomatoes. Add the hot chili sauce and cook for 5 minutes. Taste, if you need more sweetness, add the ketchup. Add the hot sauce. 


Add the cream, let it boil for a minute, taste and add salt to your liking. 

 
Serve with rice.   






The sauce without the cream could be a base for a vegetable and bean stew, maybe with some chickpeas or lentils.
