Here is an example of a simple but exceedingly tasty chorizo tapa.  Be as daring as you wish..

Ingredients

4 medium sized cooking chorizo sausages (cooking chorizo is softer than the hard cured variety)
400ml Oloroso sherry
100ml olive oil

Method:
1. Slice the chorizo sausages into bite sized pieces.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large pan and when its hot add the chorizo.
3. Fry the chorizo on both sides until nicely brown on both sides.
It may go a bit black. This is fine.
4. Add the sherry and bring it to the boil.
5. Lower the heat and allow the sherry to simmer for at least 5
minutes.
6. Serve the warm chorizo and sherry in four terracotta dishes.
