Prep
Peel potatoes and break into 3cm chunks by hand. Slice chorizo into 1cm rounds. Dice capsicum and onion. Smash garlic cloves. Chop parsley. Measure stock and spices.
Bloom
Heat olive oil in a heavy pot over medium heat. Add chorizo, cook 3 minutes until red oil renders. Add onion, capsicum, garlic, and bay leaves with a pinch of salt, cook 5 minutes until softened.
Build
Remove pot from heat. Stir in sweet and hot pimenton for 15 seconds. Return to medium-low heat. Add broken potato chunks and remaining salt, toss 90 seconds until coated in pimenton sofrito.
Simmer
Pour in hot stock, bring to vigorous simmer over medium-high heat. Lower to medium-low, cook 20–22 minutes until potato is tender and broth thickens from released starch.
Plate
Discard bay leaves. Taste and adjust salt. Ladle into warm bowls, arrange chorizo on top, scatter black pepper and parsley. Serve with toasted country bread for soaking the broth.
