Gachas

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a saucepan and brown the whole garlic cloves, then remove them and set aside.
2. In the same oil, pour the flour in a steady stream while stirring to toast it for 2 minutes, until it turns a cream colour.
3. Gradually add the boiling water while whisking to prevent lumps, then season with salt and stir in the paprika.
4. Simmer gently for 15 minutes, stirring often with a wooden spoon, until you get a soft, smooth consistency.
5. Mash the golden garlic and mix it into the porridge, then serve hot, drizzled with a little olive oil and adding the chorizo if you're using it.
