Ingredients
- 3 raw spicy Spanish chorizo, peeled and coarsely crumbled
Dough
- 180 g (1 cup) masa harina (white corn flour)
- 250 ml (1 cup) water
Guacamole
- 1 avocado
- ½ green capsicum, membrane and seeds discarded, chopped
- ½ green chilli, finely chopped
- ½ red chilli, finely chopped
- ½ bunch coriander, chopped
- 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
- A drizzle of olive oil
- 2 tbsp white vinegar
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 limes, juiced
- Torn Oaxacan cheese (or fresh mozzarella), finely chopped onion, chopped coriander, thinly sliced radish, micro herbs and edible flowers and lime wedges, to serve
Instructions
Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook for 5-10 minutes or until cooked and golden. Remove from the pan, finely chop and set aside.
For the dough, place the masa harina and water into a bowl and mix until it comes together. Divide the dough into ping pong-sized balls and roll until smooth. Cut a zip lock bag down one side and open up to line both sides of a tortilla press. Press each ball in the tortilla press and stack on a plate in between pieces of baking paper. Cover until ready to cook.
For the guacamole, place all the ingredients into a blender and blitz until smooth.
Place a heavy-based frying pan over medium heat and lightly spray with oil. Cook each tortilla for 2-3 minutes each side or until just cooked through. Place into a tortilla warmer or keep warm under a clean kitchen cloth.
To serve, top the warm tortillas with the chorizo, Oaxacan cheese, chopped onion, coriander, guacamole, radish, micro herbs and flowers with lime wedges on the side.
