Chorizo & Cavolo Nero Hash

Jump to Recipe

This Chorizo & Cavolo Nero Hash has quickly become a favourite and regular recipe in my house! It is so delicious and perfect at anytime of day. 

Time to try something new

As I have mentioned in previous posts, I have been ordering vegetable boxes for a couple of months now. The company I order them from let you be extremely flexible with what you have in your box.

They provide you with a set box each week but you can swap any vegetables you don’t fancy for one you do. This is great, but after a few weeks it meant I was playing it a bit safe.

Discovering cavolo nero

So a few weeks ago I decided to make as few swaps as possible and try some new vegetables. Cavolo Nero was available that week and although I had heard of it; I hadn’t tried it before.

The recipes I saw when I had a quick look were hearty stews and soups which all looked delicious. Instead, I decided to tweak my Mexican Eggs recipe to come up with this Chorizo & Cavolo Nero Hash.

Since I first made this Chorizo & Cavolo Nero Hash  a month or so ago, we have had it every week since. We absolutely love it! It is a great mid-week meal because it is quick to make.

The only step that takes a few minutes is chopping the potatoes. That is because I finely dice them which means they cook quicker.

If you would prefer you can cut them into bigger pieces and then just cook them for a bit longer.

Cavolo nero is also known as black kale and Italian kale to name a few. It is packed full of nutrients and iron as well as looking quite pretty in my opinion!

I really recommend that you give it a try, but if you decide it’s not for you, you could swap it for normal kale or spinach in this recipe.

You could easily have this Chorizo & Cavolo Nero Hash for brunch, lunch or dinner. It is very versatile and also easy to cook for a lot of people. It also is great for leftovers.

I quite like to make more than we will want to eat and have it for lunch the next day (minus the egg!).

    As huge fans of chorizo, this would definitely be something I could see everyone in my house enjoying! Although the kids might try to avoid the cavolo nero!
