  Best new pasta dish we have made for ages! There is a wonderful contrast of tastes and textures here. The soft pasta, with the chewy chorizo and the crunchy pangritata - the smoky chorizo with the fragrant rosemary and sweet tomatoes, with a nice chilli warmth underneath it all. YUMMMMMMM! Had never heard of pangritata before but it's easy peasy to make and despite being known as "poor man's parmesan" it feels much posher than the real thing! Made this as per the recipe, apart from doubling the quantity as the portions seemed a bit measly ;) Am shocked to be the first reviewer. Make it NOW! :)

  Have read the recipe and it`s not clear that you have to do the breadcrumbs in a separate pan. I would have bunged extra oil in the chorizo pan and put the breadcrumbs in with that. I assume you set up a separate pan for the breadcrumbs?

  I agree with Cheryl. Very unclear to the frying of the breadcrumbs. I took the tomatoes and chorizo out and fried the bread but I think that was the wrong thing to do. Help!!!!!!

  Do the breadcrumbs in a separate pan and then sprinkle on top once you have mixed the pasta and sauce together - very tasty quick easy tea!

  Made this last night. I love trying out new pasta dishes and this is one I shall certainly be making again. Because it was tomato based it didn't feel too heavy and I just loved the smoky chorizo ,breadcrumbs and rosemary combo . I was also a bit naughty and had it with some parmesan as well just because I'm addicted to the stuff. Delicious!!!!

  A lovely light supper dish. No chorizo, so I used some parma ham. Delicious!

  Yum, yum, yum! x 2! Just made this for lunch & will be making it again. Next time I will use smaller tomatoes than cherry. Only got 5 each as they were a bit on the big side.

  Quick & easy recipe once you have all the ingredients ready - completed quickly and ideal for a supper after a busy day. Chilli flakes give it a kick! I did the breadcrumbs in a separate pan in olive oil (as someone else suggested)- and it worked very well - ensure you start this while doing the chorizo pan - but be careful not to burn the crumbs!! Garlic & fresh rosemary taste was just enough. Will definitely do it again for a supper - & double the amounts for 4 people. Husband thought it was awesome - so it must be good!!

  Outstanding dish! I made this by doing the tomatoes following the roasted balsamic tomatoes recipe from this site and adding them to the pan at the end as the first time I made it I thought the tomatoes were a bit blah.... The pangritata is a nice touch and you can never go wrong with chorizo and chilli!! Will be a regular dinner in this house!

  This dish has a burst of flavours and is so easy to prepare and cook. We have it on a regular basis and never fails to impress. A good mid week supper but also impressive for guests.

  Fantastic dish, I added red parpadew peppers (they were to use up) and a tin of chopped tomatoes. I didnt bother to remove the crust from the ciabatta, I made one half into breadcrumbs and the other half I sliced thinly, grilled both sides then rubbed a garlic clove over one side. Another successful and simple dish, thank you!

  I agree that recipe is incorrectly written as to the bread crumbs. It seems to me that step 2 makes clear that the crumbs are available separately from the chorizo mix, so it must be correct to make them in a separate pan, even leaving aside the difficulty of crisping them in a pan containing chorizo and tomatoes. I think they would never crisp.

  Really good. Pangritatta was amazing- the best part of the dish! I didn't have a problem with the recipe - I read it as use 2 separate pans for the chorizo and breadcrumbs - but can see it might be a bit confusing. Breadcrumbs definitley need to be cooked separate. I also added a squeeze of lemon to the pasta mixed with the chorizo and tomatoes at the end too.

  I thought this was just ok, but I didn't really see how the breadcrumbs added to the whole dish. It was ok, not unpleasant but I don't think I'll make it again as there are so many better pasta/chorizo recipes out there.

  Yes, was a shame it was not made clear to put the breadcrumbs in a separate pan - I put it all in together and had a soggy mess!! Will try again tonight with 2 pans.
