A taste of Spain: Steenbergs smoked paprika and chorizo hash, a heavenly brunch recipe
Smooth, sweet and silky, smoked paprika is truly a delight to cook with. Although paprika can be sourced from Hungary, Steenbergs source organic smoked paprika from Spain and is locally known as Pimenton. There is a distinctly smoky element but there are also peppery and slightly bitter notes which makes this spice incredibly flavourful and versatile to work with.

It’s perfect in sauces, meat dishes and vegetable dishes but also works so very well as part of your everyday cooking as it helps to warm up a dish subtly. Smoked Paprika is used in almost every Spanish dish, in particular for breakfast and brunch dishes. Chorizo hash is incredibly easy to whip up and is served with a generous dollop of coconut yoghurt making it dairy free. Here’s the recipe for this heavenly brunch dish:

Recipe for smoked paprika and chorizo hash. Great brunch recipe.
- 2 cloves of garlic, crushed
- 1 teaspoon of organic smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon of pyramid salt
- ½ teaspoon of cracked black pepper
- 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into cubes
- 100g of baby spinach, washed thoroughly
- 1 red bell or pointed Ramiro pepper, sliced thinly
- 2 tablespoons of coconut oil
- 100g of chorizo, sliced
- 2 tablespoons of coconut yoghurt, for garnishing
- From your kitchen:
- A large saucepan
- A sharp knife
- A chopping board
- A couple of teaspoons and tablespoons
- A silicone spatula
- A couple of mixing bowls
- A wooden spoon
- A couple of plates for serving
Step 1:
In your saucepan gently heat 2 tablespoons of the coconut oil and keeping the heat on a steady medium- high temperature, add in your chopped sweet potatoes and turn up the heat, using your wooden spoon to coat all the cubes in the oil.
Step 2:
Spend about 5-7 minutes cooking your sweet potatoes, you don’t want them to colour too much, just to become tender. When this happens, add in your sliced red pepper and chorizo slices and cook for a further 3 minutes.
Step 3:
Add in your lovely pyramid salt, smoked paprika, cracked black pepper and crushed garlic and turn the heat down, tossing occasionally. Place the lid on top and let it cook for a final 3-5 minutes.
Step 4:
Steam your baby spinach and place onto your serving plates. Whilst it’s still warm, spoon over your delicious chorizo hash and serve with your coconut yoghurt on the side…a simply delicious and satisfying brunch.
