This recipe needs advance preparation! This is my improved version of Jamie Oliver's Spicy pork and chilli-pepper goulash which I found rather bland. I've used much less meat and balanced the recipe with kidney beans, added lots more flavours, garlic, red wine, honey and more herbs. The result is a really rich stew that goes further as it need lots of vegetables and rice to balance the richness. The result was marvellous.
I'm not sure if it could still be called a goulash, although I guess it's still ok as that just means stew, and you can put anything in a stew - shurely? :-)
A lot of the ingredients were chosen just because they were available from our freezer. We had some dehydrated cooked red kidney beans which had been vacuum sealed and frozen. Any red wine that is un-drunk gets frozen in polystyrene coffee cups. And a while back we got a Jamón serrano from Morrisons, which was fairly disappointing, especially once it started to dry out. To rescue it, I cut all of the meat and fat from the ham and blitzed momentarily in a food processor and vacuum sealed in 200g portions. Great for adding to recipes like this, for making omelettes and pasta dishes. I digress.
I've not added any extra salt as the Jamón serrano is already quite salty.
