4 tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped
3 zucchini, halved lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces

Preparation

  1. In a large saucepan cook the onions and the bell pepper in the oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until the vegetables are softened, add the garlic, and cook the mixture, stirring, for 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, the zucchini, the parsley, the chorizos, the salt, the black pepper, and the sugar and simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 40 minutes.
