[Cooking] Yum

I just improvised a quick dinner: I sliced some spicy chorizo and cooked it on medium heat until most of the fat and oil had rendered, removed the slices from the pan, and fried a sliced aubergine that had been brushed with a little olive oil and seasoned with salt, pepper and lime juice in the pan. The flavours and the textures of the soft aubergine and the crispy sausage complemented each other really well. With it I had a little mixed leaf salad dressed with olive oil and lemon juice and some ciabatta to soak up the oils.
No picture because I was hungry, sorry.

Can you eat it raw?

It was gorgeous with the broccoli last week.

It's cured and smoked so you can eat it the way you buy it.

But it's so chewy raw.

I'm sure that it's better cooked.

But I was brought up to believe that all kinds of wurst should be fried.
