Beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry. Stir in the cheese,

and press a cube of chorizo into the center. Heat the oil at least
1/2-inch deep to about 390 to 400 degrees and fry until golden. Drain
on paper towels. Or better, use a deep fryer. (May be kept warm in a
200 degree oven for up to 30 minutes). Spear a cucumber piece on top
of each cheese puff with a toothpick. This recipe yields 8 puffs.
