Queso Fundido

What you need

  • 1 tbsp canola oil
  • 2 chorizo links, diced
  • 1 tomato, seeded and diced
  • 1 medium red onion, coarsely chopped
  • 1 large jalapeño, seeded and diced
  • 3 tbsp tequila
  • 300mL full cream evaporated milk
  • 250g grated mixed cheese
  • ½ cup loosely packed coriander, chopped

How it’s done

Heat the oil in an cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook until lightly browned. Drain off most of the liquid.

Add the tomato, onion, and jalapeño and cook, stirring frequently, until the onion begins to soften and brown (about 7 minutes).

Add the tequila and reduce to a glaze.

Add evaporated milk

Slowly stir in cheese until just melted, then stir in the coriander. Serve immediately in the pan with chips for dipping.
