Put half of the diced chorizo in a large saucepan on a medium heat. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring regularly, until starting to crisp.
Peel and roughly chop the onions. Add to the saucepan and cook for a further 1-2 minutes until starting to soften.
Roughly slice the leeks and add to the pan, followed by the stock. Bring to the boil and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the leeks are soft. Meanwhile, dry fry the remaining chorizo in a frying pan until crisp.
Blend the soup until smooth, then stir in the cream. To serve, top bowls of the soup with a drizzle of extra cream and a handful of the remaining chorizo.
