Ingredients

• 2 chorizo, finely chopped
• 250 g sebago potato, peeled, finely chopped, cooked
• ½ onion, chopped
• 1 ripe tomato, finely chopped
• ¼ cup chopped coriander
• 1 tbsp dried oregano
• 125 ml (½ cup) olive oil
• 12 corn tortillas
• 160 ml (⅓ cup) salsa roja
• 1½ cups shredded iceberg lettuce
• sour cream, grated queso fresco (see Note) or Danish feta, to serve

Instructions

Place chorizo in a cold frying pan, then brown over high heat for 2 minutes. Drain on paper towel. Add 60 ml (¼ cup) water and potatoes to pan and remove from heat. (The water will evaporate and the potatoes will take on the chorizo flavour.)

Cook onion, tomato and herbs in a separate pan over medium heat for 2 minutes or until onion softens. Season with salt.

Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook tortillas for a few seconds or until crisp.

To assemble, spoon 1 tbsp salsa over each tortilla and scatter over chorizo and potato. Spoon over tomato mixture and top with remaining tortillas, more salsa lettuce, sour cream and cheese.

Note

• Queso fresco (literally "fresh cheese") is a soft, mild cheese made from cow’s milk and is traditionally used to make papas a la huancaina. It is available from Casa Iberica Deli (casaibericadeli.com.au).
