To make your salsa, combine tomatoes, onion, coriander, red chilli, garlic, oil, lime and salt and mix until well combined. To make your guacamole, using a mortar and pestle, break down 2 avocados until creamy and smooth, add in lime juice, galic, chilli, oil and salt. 

Then make your scrambled eggs, melt butter in a large frying pan, pour in beaten eggs and using a spatula gently move the eggs to create lard curds. Cook to desired texture. 

In a small frying pan, turn heat to high and add grated mozzarella cheese, place a tortilla on top and cook until the cheese is melted and begins to crisp. 

To serve, add scrambled eggs, chorizo hash, salsa, guacamole to a cheesy taco topped with fresh chives and enjoy!
