How to Make It
Step 1
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan/Dutch oven over a medium/high heat. Roughly chop the chorizo. Add the chorizo to the saucepan and cook until lightly golden and releasing its oils. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon and set to one side.
Step 2
Add the diced pork to the saucepan used to cook the chorizo. Cook the pork until browned all over. Remove the pork from the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside with the chorizo.
Step 3
Finely dice the onion and thinly slice the garlic. Add the onion and garlic to the saucepan used to cook the pork and chorizo. Sweat gently over a low heat for just a few minutes until tender and fragrant.
Step 4
Add the rosemary, thyme and paprika to the saucepan. Add the tomato paste and stir well to combine. Cook gently for a minute to warm the herbs and spices through. You may add more or fewer herbs and spices as desired.
Step 5
Add the chicken stock and tomato sauce to the saucepan. Bring up to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and return the pork and chorizo to the saucepan. Cover and cook gently for 50 minutes. You may add salt and pepper if desired. This will depend on the strength of seasoning in your stock and chorizo.
Step 6
Remove the lid and add the cauliflower florets to the saucepan. Stir well to combine. Simmer for 10 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender and the sauce is reduced down.
