INGREDIENTS
Pork Tacos
- 500g SunPork Pork Mince
- 1 Tbsp. oil, plus extra for frying
- ½ brown onion, finely diced
- 2 Tbsp. tomato paste
- 2 Tbsp. taco seasoning
- Water or chicken stock, as required
- Salt, to taste
- 8 small flour tortillas
- 2–3 cups grated mozzarella
- Fresh coriander, to serve (optional)
Creamy Coriander Lime Sauce
- 1 bunch fresh coriander, finely chopped
- 2 jalapeños, deseeded and finely diced
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 lime, juiced
- 2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
How to make it
- Start by making the sauce first. In a bowl, combine all the ingredients for the creamy coriander lime sauce together. Season with salt and pepper, then stir until well combined and creamy. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large frying pan over med. heat. Add the onion and cook for 2–3 mins until softened. Add the pork mince, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, and cook for 5–7 mins until browned.
- Stir through the tomato paste and taco seasoning. Add a splash of water or chicken stock if needed. Cook for another 3–4 mins, or until the pork mince is cooked through and the mixture has thickened. Season to taste and set aside to cool slightly.
- Sprinkle mozzarella over one half of a tortilla, add a portion of the pork, then top with more cheese. Fold the tortilla in half and press gently to secure the filling. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
- Heat 3–4 Tbsp. oil in a large frying pan over med heat. Fry the tacos in batches for about 1–2 mins on each side or until golden and crispy. Transfer to a wire rack while cooking the remaining tacos, adding more oil as needed.
- Serve with the creamy coriander lime sauce for dipping or drizzling. Finish with extra fresh coriander and a squeeze of lime, if desired.
