I made this a couple weeks ago and forgot to review. I used vegetable stock and soy chorizo, and I only used one onion because it was pretty big. Other than that, I made it exactly as directed. It turned out great and the leftovers heated up very nicely. I had it with French bread -- and the leftover wine, of course! Excellent recipe that I will definitely be making again. Thanks for sharing, English Rose!
