Using a sharp knife, very thinly slice the roll crosswise to create fine strands. Transfer to a colander in the sink and set aside. To a medium Dutch oven set over medium-high heat, add the potatoes, onions, and enough cold water to cover the vegetables by 2 inches. When the liquid boils, turn the heat to medium-low, add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, and cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork and the onion is completely soft, 25-30 minutes. Using an immersion or regular blender, puree the soup. Bring a large kettle of water to a boil, then pour the water over the slivered greens (they will collapse, soften, and turn bright green). Set aside for 5 minutes to drain and steam slightly. Add the chouriço to the soup and cook until the slices are firm and their fat has rendered somewhat, 5-10 minutes. Stir in the remaining olive oil and slivered greens, and cook until the greens are tender but still green, 2-3 minutes more. Season to taste with salt, and serve.
