Ingredients

If you don't have the Cookidoo app for your Thermomix follow the recipe below (please note: I've changed the measurements to grams instead of ounces):

  • 56 g (2 oz) green (spring) onions green top part only
  • 56 g (2 oz) green (spring) onions white part only
  • 140 g (5 oz) diced chorizo
  • 125 g (4.5 oz) fresh Roma tomatoes quartered (approx. 1 large tomato - I use a vine tomato)
  • 2 pinches ground cumin
  • 225 g (2 cup) cheddar cheese cubed
  • 100 g (½ cup) cream cheese (I use light cream cheese to reduce the calories!)
  • 100 ml (½ cup) heavy whipping cream (I use Elmlea double cream to reduce the calories!)
  • 0.25 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  • Place the green onion tops into the mixing bowl and chop 3 seconds/speed 7. Transfer into a bowl and set aside.
  • Place the white onion parts, chorizo, tomato, and ground cumin into the mixing bowl and chop 5 seconds/speed 5. Scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl with the spatula and without the measuring cup cook 10 minutes/Varoma/speed 1. Transfer into a separate bowl and set aside.
  • Without washing the mixing bowl, place the cheddar cheese cubes into the mixing bowl and grate 5 seconds/speed 6.
  • Add the cream cheese, whipping (or double) cream, and garlic powder, and cook for 6 minutes 30 seconds/195F/speed 1. Transfer into a serving bowl.
  • 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 (see Notes).

Notes

  • NOTE: the cheese dip will appear runny at first but it does thicken as it cools. Once cold, the cheese dip sets which is fine for spreading on crackers or bread. For scooping up with crisps or tortilla chips, warm the chorizo dip at 30 second intervals in the microwave.
  • Vegetarian option - replace the chorizo with smoked paprika-spiced mushrooms or sun-dried tomatoes for a smoky, savoury alternative.
  • Spices - for extra heat in the chorizo mixture, try adding spices like smoked paprika, cayenne or chilli flakes.
