Stewed! For Lunch

For lunch today, I had a Chorizo, Chickpea and Pork Stew from a company called Stewed! in one of my old haunts, Wood Green. They don’t give an address, but it looks like it’s somewhere behind the old Haringey Town Hall and also the Barclays Bank, where my father used to have an account. He once told me that he was also involved in the training of a race horse somewhere in that area.  Rumour has it, he was warned off for painting on the blaze  of the horse with Meltonian. But then racing at Alexandra Palace was very dodgy between the wars.

The Stewed! was very good with some large pieces of sausage and meat and I’ll certainly buy some more.  It was labelled gluten-free and now a couple of hours later, I’ve no reason to doubt their assertions on the packet.

I also liked the cooking method, which for someone with a slightly gammy left hand was easy, as the lid was simple to remove.

So good luck to them!

I bought mine from Waitrose, but I think Sainsburys stock them.
