Nachos Grandes
This recipe is for lazy days and to experience while watching a movie:
1 bag of nachos (Not Tostitos, I mean fried corn tortilla)
1 lb of cheese (I recommend Monterrey Jack or Cheddar)
2 chorizos
1 can of refried beans (if it's a pound, better)
3 tomatoes
1 onion
4 or 5 jalapeños
6 lemons
fresh coriander
table salt
Sauce:
Easy, this one is called "Pico de Gallo" which means "Cock's Peak" and it will give the freshness sensation to the cachos. Slice the onions as thin as you can, put it in a dish, bowl on whatever and squeeze all the lemons over it. Mix the onions and the lemon juice more acid, the better and I'll tell you later why, then add as much salt as you want. Place it aside to let it rest for about an hour, this will remove the stinky odor from the onion and will improve the flavor and is. Slice the tomatoes, thin but not as thin as the onion and depending on your tolerance to hotness use the jalapeños your judgment allows, slice them and mix them with the tomatoes. Now, slice the fresh coriander not much just 3 or 4 twigs, fold them as many times as possible and slice it as thin as possible, mix it with the tomatoes and jalapeños and let it rest so the fragance is absorbed by the tomatoes. After the hour mix everything in a large bowl and put it in the fridge, this must be served cold.
Nachos:
Preheat the oven (yes, oven, can be electric even, but personally I think the microwave makes the nachos become like rubber) to 350°F. Now, it's time to add some flavor to the beans, cut the chorizos in little cubes and fry them in a pan, don't use oil, with the chorizo's fat will be enough. When the chorizo is properly fried (be careful, don't let it over fry) open the can of refried beans and mix them with the chorizo. Not a lot of chorizo, the purpose is to add flavor and not make the nachos very heavy. Let the mixture cook for 5 minutes but never stop stiring, take the pan away from the fire and now place the tortilla chips in a baking pan and try to cover the chips with the super tasty refried beans, not much and doesn't have to be perfect. Take the cheese and slice it over the chips and beans, this depends on your addiction to fat. Get the baking pan in the oven and let it cook for 5 minutes, this will melt the cheese, make the chips crunchier and keep the beans warm. Take them out of the oven and serve while hot. Add a lot of the "Pico de Gallo" to the nachos, this is the magic ingredient because the lemon has the property of removing the flatulent factor of beans, so the more sauce, the less farts.
