For the chorizo hash: In a saucepan over medium heat, heat oil. Cook onion for 3 minutes. Add chorizo and press slightly with a spoon until crumbled. Cook for 5 minutes or until cooked through. Add potatoes, salt, and pepper. Mix until completely incorporated. Set aside.
For the molotes: In a bowl, mix masa harina, baking powder, lard, and plenty of salt. Mix until completely incorporated. Pour in lukewarm water little by little and knead until a soft and moist dough is obtained.
Form a dough ball with your hands. Place dough ball over butcher paper and roll out to a 4.7 x 2.3-inch oval. Using a spoon, place chorizo hash in the middle. Seal dough tightly around the chorizo hash. Gently press the edges with your fingers to keep stuffing from spilling when frying Puebla-style molotes.
In a pot over medium heat, heat plenty of oil and fry Puebla-Style molotes for 6 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Garnish Puebla-style molotes with sour cream, lettuce, and queso fresco. Serve Puebla-style molotes with the salsa of your choice.
