For those who have been lucky enough to travel to Mexico and try a torta, you know that it’s not just any Mexican sandwich, and that they are built with layers of flavours put together to create the ultimate tasty sandwich.
There are many different types of torta recipe, from the classic ham and cheese, to a more exotic Cubana with pulled pork and ham, to a Milanesa (breaded steak), and the chorizo sandwich shown here.
But there are really no rules to what you can put in a Mexican torta when you prepare them at home. Perhaps the only rule we can think of is to make sure to add many layers of flavours, and always finish it up with some kind of pickled chilli, like Gran Luchito Fire Roasted Serranos.
So what’s not to love about crusty torta bread cut in half and toasted in the oven? One side is smeared with a good amount of Gran Luchito Chipotle Mayo topped with a tasty chipotle chorizo filling. The other side is dolloped with freshly made guacamole and lettuce leaves, a few serranos and then all put together into one tasty Mexican chorizo sandwich.
You can slice this torta sandwich into little tortas and serve as a snack, or share between two people for lunch.
