1. Begin by making the hollandaise sauce - put egg yolks, salt, lime juice and your chipotle peppers into a blender and blend together for about 30 seconds, slowly begin adding in the melted butter while blending. The consistency should be smooth.

2. On a medium heat, place ground chorizo in a small pan and begin browning making sure to break it up into smaller pieces and cooking through.

3. Using another burner bring a pot of water to a boil and add in lemon juice and reduce heat to a medium low heat. Circle water with a spoon to create a whirlpool and add a cracked egg to the middle. Repeat with the other egg.

4. In a pan add olive oil and lightly brown tortillas. In a bowl smash avocados with sea salt and black pepper to taste.

5. In order to assemble - Place corn tortilla down and add smashed avocado, top with chorizo and poached egg - add a spoonful of hollandaise sauce, garnish with jalapeño, cilantro and a spoonful of salsa.

Serve hot and enjoy!
