Chorizo and Pork Casserole image

A lovely hearty casserole - its winter comfort food at its best. Its got a great flavour and the Chorizo and the chilli gives is enough of a zing but I always put out some cayenne for those that like it that bit hotter - I served it with mashed potatoes and vegetables but it would also be great with rice! I have put this here on Food.com as having made it as I went along I will never remember what I put in it.
