| |
| 60 ml. Olive Oil |
| 1 large Spanish Onion, diced |
| 2 cloves Garlic, thinly sliced |
| 300 g. Chorizo Sausage, diced |
| 6 medium Potatoes, peeled and diced |
| ½ packet King Piri-Piri Original Recipe mix |
| 1.8 l. of cold Water |
| 500 g. Kale or Spinach, cut into small strips |
| Salt and Pepper to taste |
|
| |
| The Portuguese sausage often contains piri-piri powder and is the same as the chorizo of Spain and Mexico. |
| |
| In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until they are translucent. Add the garlic, half the chorizo, and the piri-piri mix and cook for 2 minutes. Add the potatoes, cover everything with water, bring to a boil and lower the heat, simmering until the potatoes are almost done, about 15 minutes. When the soup is cool enough to handle, puree it in a food processor and return to the pot. Add the greens, and bring everything back to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, ladle into bowls and garnish on top with the remaining cubes of chorizo. |
