- 1* dried guindilla Riojan pepper, stems and seeds removed and cut in 1 cm “squares” (*or use 2 guindillas for a more definite bit of heat)

METHOD
- Heat a little olive oil in a casserole dish; gently fry the whole chorizos until just cooked but still juicy - browning well on both sides; remove the chorizos from the dish and put to one side.
- Raise the heat to medium, add the remaining 60ml olive to the casserole and sauté the pumpkin, onion and peppers until the onion starts to soften; stir in the garlic and bay leaf and cook for one minute; add the stock and sherry vinegar, reduce the heat, cover the casserole and simmer until the pumpkin is soft (approx. 20 minutes).
- Remove the bay leaf and puree the pumpkin mixture in a liquidiser or food processor; return the pureed pumpkin mixture to the casserole over a medium-low heat; check for salt.
- Cut the chorizos into 1 cm slices and add to the casserole then carefully stir in the beans; gently simmer for 5 minutes and adding a little extra stock or water if you prefer.
- Serve garnished with diced tomatoes and mint leaves.
