Queso Fundido

Ingredients for Queso Fundido

• 2 links dried Spanish chorizo, (100g) skin removed and finely chopped (180ml )

• 1 cucchiaio di olio vegetale

• 2 spicchi d'aglio, tritati finemente

• 1 cipolla media, tritata finemente

• 1 peperone rosso, tritato finemente

• 1 fresh jalapeño or Serrano chilli, seeded, if desired, and finely chopped

• 1 cucchiaino di paprika dolce

• 1 (14- to 425g ) can refried pinto beans

• 180ml acqua

• 230g Manchego or Monterey Jack cheese, coarsely grated (550ml )

• Corn tortilla crisps

Cook chorizo in 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring, until golden and pieces start to crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.

Cook onion, garlic, peppers, and paprika in fat remaining in skillet, stirring occasionally, until vegetables start to soften and turn golden, about 8 minutes.

Stir in 60ml water and simmer, uncovered, until vegetables are tender and almost all liquid is evaporated, about 3 minutes.

Stir in refried beans and remaining 120ml water and simmer until slightly thickened and mixture is bubbling, 3 to 5 minutes.

Remove from heat and stir in reserved chorizo and half the cheese until melted.

Preheat grill with rack about 6 inches from heat.

Pour bean mixture into a shallow (2-quart) flameproof crock or baking dish and sprinkle with remaining cheese.

Grill 5 to 7 inches from heat until golden and bubbling, about 3 minutes.

Serve with tortilla crisps.
