Ingredients
Methods
Step 1
Make your chorizo: heat oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add paprika, cayenne & garlic powder to the oil and let cook for about 20 seconds.
Step 2
Crumble in the sausages and break up more with a spoon. You’re aiming for a crumbled chorizo consistency (this is how chorizo is done in Mexico). Coat with hot oil and spices. Cook and stir regularly, until crispy all over and coated in spices. Add oregano and cook for another minute or so. Set ‘chorizo’ mix aside
Step 3
In your oven proof pan, melt the margarine on a gentle heat, add shallot and cook until translucent. Add garlic and cook for another 30 seconds, being careful not to burn it. Then remove butter mix from the heat and whisk your flour in until a roux has formed. Put back to a gentle heat and very slowly add milk and whisk constantly until a thick liquid forms. Add cheese and keep stirring until gooey and melted.
Step 4
Top with crumbled chorizo.
Step 5
Put the pan under the grill on a high heat, so the top gets nice and crispy. When the top looks a bit charred, remove from the grill.
Step 6
Top with jalapenos and coriander. Serve with toasted bread for dipping and mopping up!
