Ingredients

One ham bone with meat

Bag of garbonzo beans (chick-peas)

1 medium onion, chopped

1 green pepper, chopped

8 oz chorizo or pepperoni if unavailable, chopped

1/2 tsp oregano

2 bay leaves

2 garlic cloves

salt and pepper to taste

3 cups diced potaotes

6 or more threads of saffron--the more the better!

Directions

In a large pot, cover ham bone, beans, onion, pepper, chorizo (or pepperoni), oregano, bay leaves, garlic, salt and pepper with water about 3" above the ingredients. Bring to a boil and simmer for at least two hours. You may need to add more water. You want the meat falling off the bone.

Remove the ham bone and allow to cool enough to handle. Pick all the meat that is left on the bone off and return to the stock.

Add potatoes and saffron. Add more water if necessary to cover potatoes and have a little extra broth.

Cook for about 20 minutes, until potatoes are tender.
