Preparation

  • 1 To make the soup simply place the butter, onion and garlic in a large pot and heat gently. Stir and heat until the onions are soft and fragrant.

  • 4 To make the dust simply food process the diced sausage until it resembles fine crumbs, place the chorizo mince into a greased and heated pan and cook until fragrant and hot, stirring to make sure it doesn’t burn. Blend the breadcrumbs and parsley in the same processor and pulse until nicely combined. Add to the cooked chorizo and allow to heat through.
