Queso Fundido Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Topping (if using)

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. If using chorizo, add it to the skillet and cook until browned. For mushrooms, add them to the skillet and sauté until softened. If using huitlacoche, add it directly to the skillet and cook for a few minutes. Remove and set aside.

  2. 2

    Melt the Cheese

    In a large, oven-safe skillet or a cast-iron pan, combine the Oaxacan cheese and Monterey Jack cheese. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently until the cheese is melted and creamy.

  3. 3

    Combine and Serve

    If using a topping, mix it into the melted cheese or layer it on top. Serve immediately with tortilla chips or warm tortillas for dipping.
