Cocido Madrileno

This dish is for the morning after a big night out on the town. It is the perfect hangover cure.

Serves 10 to 12

Ingredients

  • 1 pound beef brisket, cut into 2-inch chunks
  • 1/2 pound slab bacon, cut into 4 pieces
  • 1 pound beef marrow bones (cut into 1- to 2-inch pieces by the butcher)
  • 1/2 pound spanish chorizo, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • One 2-3 pound boiling chicken, cut into 8 pieces
  • 1 small onion, peeled and studded with 3 cloves
  • 1 head garlic, cut in half across the bulbv

  • 1 pound dried chickpeas, soaked overnight in water to cover and drained

Method

  1. Put the meats, chicken, onion, garlic, bay leaves, and peppercorns in a large stockpot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Skim off the foam, add the chickpeas, lower the heat, cover, and simmer gently for 2 hours, or until the chickpeas are soft.
