Instructions
- 1
Combine masa harina, warm water, salt, and lard into a smooth, pliable dough. Divide into 12 balls. Press each into a thick, round disc about ¼-inch thick and 3 inches wide using a tortilla press or your hands.

Cook on a dry comal over medium-high heat for 2 minutes per side until firm and lightly spotted. While still hot and pliable, pinch up a small border around the edge of each disc to form a shallow rimmed cup — this is the defining sope shape.
- 3
Fry the rimmed sopes in a thin film of oil for 2 minutes per side until crispy and golden. Cook chorizo in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up, until browned and cooked through, about 6 minutes.

Spread warm refried beans on each sope, then top with chorizo. Add crema, crumbled queso fresco, salsa verde, shredded lettuce, and diced onion. Serve immediately.
