The first thing we are going to do is preparing the sofrito. A "Sofrito" is the basic foundation in many of the most important Spanish dishes, and it consists of a mixture of sauteed ingredients.
In a medium size casserole, add the olive oil (enough to cover the base of the casserole).
Add the onions, and garlic, and cook for 15 minutes or until the onions are soft and transparent.
Add the green peppers, and sauté for another 5 minutes.
Add the tomatoes, and let it simmer until the tomato sauce is reduced, and the"sofrito" starts to look like a tomato sauce.
Season with salt to your taste.
Once the sofrito is cooked, run the cooked tomato mixture through a food processor.
Add the chickpeas, pumpkin, French Green Beans, potatoes, chorizo, paprika, ham bones, Bay leaves, salt to your taste, and add enough water to cover all the ingredients.
Let it boil on medium heat for 1 hour or until the chickpeas are tender. Add more water if needed.
