Prepare the masa dough by mixing 2 cups of masa harina with 1.5 cups warm water and salt until you have a soft, pliable dough
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chorizo by breaking it into small pieces and stirring frequently until browned and cooked through, about 8 minutes
Form the masa dough into 8 oval balls, then flatten slightly and use your thumb to create a rim around the edge
Heat more oil in the skillet and carefully place each sope into the hot oil, frying for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy
Drain the fried sopes on paper towels and set aside
Warm the refried beans in a separate pan and spread a generous layer onto each sope
Top each sope with the cooked chorizo, shredded lettuce, crumbled queso fresco, sour cream, and fresh salsa
Serve immediately while the sopes are still warm and the edges remain crispy
