"I always loved fava beans stewed Portuguese style. But there is always something missing from the recipes I have. I adjusted the spices and added some chourico, a Portuguese sausage similar to linguica or chorizo. I think this version makes a great dish. Make sure you have plenty of crusty bread for dipping in the sauce!"

I used ketchup instead of tomato sauce. It adds a nice little zip.

This was really yummy. However, the second time that I made it, I used only 1/2 tablespoon of chile paste. :)

This was really good. Loved the chourico, the flavors blended well and filled the house with an amazing aroma.

The missing ingredient is cinnamon! Just a pinch. My Portuguese family has a recipe very similar to this. You can add baby potatos, too, or sliced hard boiled eggs.
