Along the Camino, I had bean dish several times, but I'm not sure what it's called. It's beans in a reddish-brown sauce, sometimes served with chorizo. The sauce wasn't sweet, like you get with baked beans here in the states, it was more savory. Anyone have any idea what I'm talking about??

I don't know what you've eaten on the Camino, but beans (of any kind, e.g. white, butter, black, etc.) slowly simmered (for about an hour or so) in any liquid, e.g. tomatoes, with spices and, of course chopped up chorizo makes a great dish - especially in the winter time.

This sounds like Fabada. If you put Fabada Asturiana into a search engine you should find a recipe.

I did the Frances. Fabada looks very similar to what I'm looking for. I'll give it shot! Thank you!
