Chorizo slow braised in El Gaitero cider. This classic dish originates from Asturias, found in the Northern part of Spain. This humble, rustic tapa is the perfect flavour bomb to show off at that next get together.

  2. Lightly caramelise the onions and garlic, and then add the fresh thyme and bay leaf

  4. Now add in the 200 ml of Asturian cider and your meat stock. 
  5. Now grab that last drop of cider and do the washing up while you leave the liquid to reduce to half and the chorizo become soft
