  • 50 g of blanched almonds toasted and coarsely ground

Instructions
 

  • Within a heavy-duty soup pot heat the oil on medium heat and fry the chorizo for two minutes.
  • Decrease the heat and mix in the onion, garlic and chilli. Gently cook for 10 minutes, or until the onion has become tender.
  • Pour the white wine into the pot and lightly simmer for an additional minute to evaporate the alcohol.
  • Incorporate the potatoes and stock and mix well. Add the paprika, celery salt and tarragon, stir thoroughly and return to boiling.
  • Reduce the heat to low and gently simmer until the potatoes are thoroughly cooked. Add a little boiling water to the pan if it looks like there’s not enough liquid.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with a scattering of the almonds, a dash of parsley and a fine drizzle of olive oil.
