Instructions

Soak the dried white beans in water overnight. Drain and rinse them before cooking.
In a large pot, add the soaked beans, pork shoulder, chorizo, morcilla, pork belly or bacon, onion, garlic, bay leaves, sweet paprika, salt, and pepper.
Pour enough water into the pot to fully cover the ingredients.
Bring the pot to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently. Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface.
Let the Fabada stew simmer for about 2 to 3 hours until the beans are tender and the flavors have melded together. Stir occasionally and add more water if needed to maintain the desired consistency.
Once the Fabada is cooked, remove the bay leaves and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Serve the Fabada hot in bowls, and enjoy with crusty bread or over steamed rice.
