[Cooking] Yum

[karohemd]

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.

one way I've never had chorizo is in a sandwich... although fried in red wine and using a good chunk of crusty bread to mop up all the juices is about the closest I've gotten, it's also a favourite with my 7 year old son. I somehow don't see it as being very good in a sandwich, it would be akin to sticking something like pepperoni in a sandwich. It always tastes better after cooking when all the fat runs and melds with whatever else you happen to be having.
