Method
Step 1
Finely slice about a quarter of the chorizo and chop the remainder. Heat the oil in a large saucepan, and cook the sliced chorizo over a moderate heat until crisp and golden in places. Remove and set to oneside.
Step 2
Add the onion and remaining chorizo and cook until softened, stirring from time to time. Stir in the sweet potato and cover with a well fitting lid. Cook for 5 minutes shaking the pan from time to time.
Step 3
Add the stock. Cover and simmer for 35-40 minutes. Blend until smooth. Note if using a food processor or liquidizer it is always best to allow the soup to cool before blending. Reheat if necessary.
Step 4
Season to taste. Serve with a spoonful of Greek yoghurt and garnished with a few slices of the chorizo and a sprinkling of chives.
