Steps:
- 1. Corn Filling: In a medium sauté pan cook chorizo and corn for 10 minutes, crumbling the chorizo with a wooden spoon while coking. Set aside and keep warm.
- 2. Sopes: (Be sure to pick with a fork before frying) photo 2 with small rim) photo 3 and 4 finger pinched to form rim- pick all with fork. Place the masa corn flour in a bowl and add about 1/2 c. of water and mix with your hands for about 2 minutes. Make 3-inch rounds of the masa using the palm of your hands, pinching the edges of the rounds to create a little wall. (I flatten the circles with a floured glass that is just a little smaller than the circle and push the dough up to make a ridge). The cooking process is divided into 2 parts: 1) pre-cook on pan without oil 2) fry crispy. After completing all the sopes, heat a wide thick bottom sauté pan or comal(tortilla cooker) over medium heat for 5 minutes. Once hot, place the sope on pan or comal and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes. Begin to preheat another pan with 1 quart of canola oil to 375^. (Fry the pre-cooked sopes a couple at a time in 350^ hot oil) until golden brown. Once browned, carefully remove to paper towels.
- 3. For nopales pico de gallo: Fire up the grill or BBQ. While the BBQ is heating, bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Once water is boiling, add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda to the water and boil the nopales for 10 minutes. Remove from the water and set aside. Once the grill is hot, lightly oil the nopales and scallions, season with salt and pepper and grill until a bit charred. Remove and set aside until at room temperature, then dice them into small pieces.
- 4. Place mopales,scallions, tomatoes, pickled jalapenos, cilantro and lime juice in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Set aside. --- To serve: Place the hot corn and chorizo mix inside the sope round, top with a spoonful of nopales pico de gallio , then crumbled cheese on top. Serve immediaately. For vegetarian dish use the soy chorizo.
GRILLED CORN, MEXICAN STYLE
Not only is this recipe very easy, it results in the kind of deep flavor associated with the crunchy street corn of Mexico. In many parts of Mexico, though, that crunchiness is highlighted with a creamy chile-lime sauce. This is more unusual than the tried, true and unbeatable butter-salt-and-pepper combination, and only slightly more complicated. Just mix together mayonnaise, freshly squeezed lime juice, chile powder, salt and pepper. It's pretty authentic, and a combination that brings out the grilled flavor, and balances the sweetness of fresh corn perfectly.

- Mix together mayonnaise, lime juice, chili powder and some salt and pepper in a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more lime juice or chili powder if you like. Serve corn with chili-lime mayo.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, garlic, salt, and sugar. Set aside.
- Heat the grill to medium-high (about 400°F). Place the ears of corn directly on the grill (no need to oil the corn or the grill first). Grill the corn, covered, turning occasionally, until the corn is cooked through and lightly charred, about 10 minutes.
- Let the corn sit for a few minutes until cool enough to handle. Combine the cotija cheese and cilantro on a large, flat plate. Using a pastry brush, coat each ear of corn with the mayonnaise/sour cream mixture and then lightly roll each ear in the cotija/cilantro mixture. Sprinkle each ear all over with a pinch of chipotle chili powder. Serve warm with lime wedges.
- Note: Most large supermarkets carry cotija cheese (look for it near the Mexican cheeses or the feta cheese), but if you're unable to find it, feta cheese makes a good substitute.

MEXICAN GRILLED CORN
I consider this to be the greatest corn-on-the-cob recipe of all time. The way the mild, subtly salted cheese works with an ancho-lime mayonnaise, along with that buttery, smoky corn, is a magnificent combination of flavors. Perfecto!

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Combine mayonnaise, lime juice, ancho chile powder, and smoked paprika in a bowl; whisk until smooth. Refrigerate until needed.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Boil corn in the salted water for 5 minutes. Drain the corn.
- Place ears of corn on hot grill and cook until the kernels begin to brown and caramelize, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the corn and continue to cook, turning ears after 1 to 2 minutes, until they are browned with slightly charred, caramelized spots.
- Generously brush corn with melted butter and ancho-lime mayonnaise until kernels are coated. Sprinkle ears with Cotija cheese and salt. Garnish with slices of lime.
