Cook 1kg of cassava in water and pull out all the stems, set aside.
Into a saucepan, add a drizzle of oil and add the bacon, sauté until slightly golden brown. Add the diced smoked sausage and let it fry in the bacon grease.
Add the crushed or minced garlic cloves, once they turn brown, turn off the heat and set aside.
In a blender, if it is big enough, put 500g of cassava and blend with 1 liter of water. If it's small, gradually add it and blend it.
Transfer all this cassava mixture to the saucepan with the bacon and the sausage. Add the salt and turn the heat on medium-low, stir occasionally until it starts to boil.
When it starts to boil, the soup has cooked through and it's ready.
Turn off the heat, add parsley and chives and mix.
Serve.
