Canary Islands peas are a traditional stew from the Canary Islands that combines peas with potatoes, chorizo, bacon, and sausages in a flavorful and comforting sauce. This dish, also known as guiso de arvejas, is perfect for a family lunch or Sunday meal, as it is hearty, nutritious, and full of flavor.
The original recipe includes simple ingredients such as frozen peas, potatoes, onion, red pepper, garlic, fried tomato, white wine, and aromatic herbs like thyme, oregano, and bay leaf. The mix of meats (chorizo, bacon, and sausages) adds a smoky and juicy touch that complements the chicken broth and coloring or turmeric to give it that characteristic golden color.
It is ideal for those looking for an easy-to-prepare comfort food with moderate cooking time and that admits variations: you can adjust the amount of potatoes or add other vegetables. It is usually served with white rice or with cheese wrapped in pink sauce, although it is also delicious on its own. Its creamy texture and intense flavor make it a perfect choice for any time of year.

Fry the potatoes cut into cubes, whatever size we like and leave them golden but not stewed, they end up with the stew.
Cook 4 or 5 eggs, and set aside for decoration.
In a cauldron or large wok-type pan, chop and fry with a little oil, onions, pepper and garlic. We added a little salt to dehydrate. More or less 5 min.
We add the bacon and the sausage, and stir, we take advantage of adding a little oil so that it mixes with the oil of the bacon and the chorizo, a rich toy. 5 min.
We added a splash of white wine and 3 or 4 minutes more.
We add the peas, which with the rest of the ingredients, can already be called peas, the sausages (which I forgot, but my wife missed them) a little bay leaf and a little more broth tablet, and stir with the rest of the ingredients.
Stir 5 minutes or 7 minutes depending on how the peas are and pour water, up to two fingers on top. Dye, herbs, even more broth pills, and a little oil.
Let it cook until the broth is low and it is almost sauce, 20 minutes. More or less, you add the potatoes and stir and add a little tomato sauce, to thicken it, not much, and you wait for everything to thicken.
You look out and look at the neighbor's dog for a while for 5 minutes until he gets angry or judges you with his eyes
