This chorizo dip is absolutely amazing...it's not the healthiest of dips, but if you use low-fat cream cheese and Elmlea cream, these will reduce the calories slightly. It's a great dip to enjoy with crusty bread, breadsticks, and crisps. David made it in our Thermomix and we took it round to our friend's house - they enjoyed it just as much as we did! Enjoy as part of a buffet and to go along with party food.

Non-Thermomix Instructions
I'd suggest the recipe can be adapted using the hob, a cheese grater, and a chopping board and knife - my suggestions are as follows:
- Green onion tops - finely chop by hand.
- White onion parts, chorizo, and tomato - firstly, finely chop each ingredient by hand. Put into a saucepan with the ground cumin on medium heat and cook for 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Cheddar cheese - grate by hand.
- Put the grated cheese into the saucepan the chorizo mixture was cooked in, along with the cream cheese, cream, and garlic powder, and cook on a medium to low heat for 6 minutes 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
- Serve the cooked chorizo mixture in the centre of the serving bowl, surrounded by the cheese dip, and sprinkle with the reserved chopped green onion tops.
