How to make traditional Madrilenian stew:
- In a pot with plenty of cold water, put all the meats.
- And separated by a vegetable drainer, the vegetables and the chickpeas (which will have been soaked for 12 hours the night before).
- Add the salt and let it cook slowly for a little over 3 hours.
- The first course of the stew will be the soup, for which we will use the broth from it.
- We can make the soup with the pasta that we want or with bread.
- If it is pasta, you will have to remove part of the broth to another saucepan.
- And when it boils add the paste, letting it boil until cooked
- If we want bread, we will cut slices of hard bread.
- Placing them in the bottom of the plates, and watering them later with the broth from the stew.
- The chickpeas are placed in a dish with the meat around it well placed.
- Vegetables, potatoes and chorizo and black pudding are served in another separate bowl.
- The two dishes are served at the same time, along with a sauce boat with tomato sauce to accompany them.
