QUESO DIP WITH SPINACH AND CHORIZO

It is always a pleasure to dive almost face first in to a warm skillet of creamy queso, it is one of those dishes that once you start to eat you're not gonna stop until that skillet is licked clean!  Queso is not just great on its own as a dip with just a spoon! but equally brilliant over pan seared chicken, steak or as a nacho sauce.  


Ingredients 
(serves 1-2)

1 small onion finely finely chopped
1 clove garlic finely grated 
1 glug olive oil
1 tsp butter
1 chorizo cooking sausage finely chopped
8 slices sweetcure bacon finely chopped 
300ml double cream
100 g cheddar cheese grated 
50g Parmesan grated
50g emmental cheese
1 fresh jalapeño chopped
1/2 tsp chipotle powder Or...
1 fresh jalapeño charred and diced 
6 fresh cherry toms diced

Heat your skillet to medium hot heat, add the olive oil and butter, once melted add the onions and garlic, soften for five minutes then add the chorizo, bacon and cherry tomatoes cook for a further five minutes until the bacon and chorizo are slightly crispy, reduce the heat to medium low and add the double cream, bring to a low gentle simmer and add all three cheeses, the jalapeños and chipotle powder, leave on a really low heat to gently bubble away for a few minutes and that's it.  Season with fresh black pepper and Himalayan sea salt if needed to taste.  Spoon, dip or pour over everything and anything!
