Cut the baguette or demi baguettes in half horizontally.
Using a pastry brush, baste the outsides and insides of the bread lightly with olive oil. Layer the inside with chorizo (this can be warmed gently in a frying pan before adding to the sandwich if preferred) and other fillings as desired. Add a tablespoon or two of olive oil to the pan and fry until the bread is lightly browned on top and bottom (about 3-4 minutes) amd serve while still hot.
If not serving immediately, wrap the sandwiches in foil and keep warm in a low oven.
