MEXICAN CHORIZO

Steps:

• Place the pork, Aleppo pepper, chili powder, garlic, salt, black pepper, oregano, cumin, cloves, and coriander into a bowl, and lightly toss the pork with the seasonings until thoroughly blended. Cover the bowl, and refrigerate the meat, your meat grinder's head assembly, and grinder hopper for 1 hour.
• Fill a large mixing bowl with ice cubes, and place a smaller metal bowl in the ice cubes to catch the ground meat. Assemble the chilled meat grinder, and grind the pork and seasonings using a coarse cutting plate. Return ground meat to refrigerator for 30 minutes. Lightly stir the ground pork with the vinegar and water until thoroughly mixed, form into patties, and refrigerate overnight, covered, to let flavors develop.
• Heat vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat, and pan-fry the patties until browned and no longer pink in the middle, 5 to 8 minutes per side.

CHEESY CHORIZO TAQUITOS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a medium pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté for 6 minutes, until slightly tender and fragrant. Add the green chiles, chipotles, and adobo sauce, and cook for 2 minutes, until fully incorporated.
• Add the beef chorizo, cumin, paprika, cinnamon, and salt, and cook, breaking up the chorizo with a wooden spoon, for 10-14 minutes, until the chorizo is cooked through and crispy. Remove the pan from the heat and let the chorizo mixture cool slightly.
• In a small bowl, combine the Monterey Jack and cheddar cheeses.
• Assemble the taquitos: Wrap the tortillas loosely in a damp paper towel and microwave for 45-60 seconds, until soft and pliable.
• Set a tortilla on a flat surface and sprinkle with 1½-2 tablespoons of the cheese blend. Spoon 1½ tablespoons of the chorizo mixture in a line on one end of the tortilla. Roll the tortilla up to enclose the filling, securing with a toothpick. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, cheese, and chorizo filling.
• In a medium, high-walled pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-low heat until it reaches 325°F (160°C). Working in batches, fry the taquitos starting seam side down for 2-3 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and crispy. Remove from the pan and let cool slightly, then remove the toothpicks.
• Arrange the taquitos on a platter and drizzle with the crema, then top with the lettuce, tomato, avocado, and any remaining cheese. Or top with lettuce, scallions, avocado, Fresno chilies, and any remaining cheese.
• Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!
