Absolutely gorgeous. I didn't have olives but a large chunk of chorizo so chopped it up and added that instead. Gave a lovely smoky flavour to the dish.

I made this without the chilli or olives, and I added four chopped rashers of smoked bacon, absolutely delicious!

This looks nice and warming, just right for a cold day.

I made this recipe last night - delicious, easy, possibly a bit spicy for the kids but I'll tone down the spice and let them try it soon. Will become a standard dish here - thank you!
