Pork Stew With Chickpeas
Pork goulash or stews are often found in my kitchen. They also taste great when heated, it is easy to feed the whole family with, and the best thing is that they actually cook alone and all you have to do is wait until meat has softened and let all the ingredients combine. This stew is great, slightly spicy, tomato, with juicy meat, crunchy peppers and delicious chickpeas, a great way to make a perfect dish 🙂
