Place the chorizo and fry it.
When the chorizo is cooked, add the onion and move until it it gets clear.
Stir in the chopped tomato.
Add the cheese, cover and lower the heat.
Leave it about five minutes or until the cheese melts.
Separate the pan from the heat and serve the chorizo dip immediately.

Notes
TIPS FOR PREPARING AND SERVING QUESO FUNDIDO
Serve the queso flameado immediately, because if it is cooled and overheated, it changes consistency, the cheese dries up.
Chopped tomato and onion are optional but adding them to the queso flameado it’s delicious.
Swap the pork chorizo for a turkey chorizo for a lower calorie recipe.
I like to prepare it when we make carne asada (barbeque) or have guests, this melted cheese is always a success.
Serve with flour or corn tortilla chips.
