1/4 cup almonds 60 ml
15 slices baguette, diagonally cut 15 slices

Step 1
Diagonally cut chorizo into slices. Cook in a large non-stick frying pan, over medium heat, 2 minutes on each side until golden (or barbecue whole sausages, then cut into slices).

Step 2
Meanwhile, combine yogurt, peppers and almonds in a food processor, and pulse until creamy, but still a little chunky. Add salt and pepper.
