# How To Make It:

05 - Return the chorizo to the pot. Using a potato masher or immersion blender, partially mash the potatoes to desired consistency, leaving some chunks.
06 - Stir in heavy cream and heat gently for 2 to 3 minutes. Do not boil. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
07 - Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
