Instructions
MAKE CHIPS
Preheat oven to 220°C or 200°C fan bake. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pork. Peel and mince the garlic. Slice the unpeeled sweet potato into chips and toss on a lined oven tray with half the garlic and the first measure of oil. Season with salt and pepper and roast on the upper oven rack for 20-25 mins, or until golden and tender. Turn once during cooking.
POACH PORK
Place pork in the pot of boiling water, place the lid on, and bring it back up to a boil. Immediately remove the pot from heat and set aside for 20 mins. Then remove from pot and set aside to cool slightly.
MAKE SAUCE
Meanwhile, slice the orange in half. Then heat the second measure of oil in a medium-sized pot on medium heat. Cook the remaining garlic until fragrant, 1 min. Then add tomato sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, cornflour, and squeeze in the orange juice, whisk to combine. Cook until slightly thickened, 3-4 mins.
WARM TORTILLAS
Meanwhile, put the tortillas on a plate, slightly overlapping, and microwave for 30 secs, or until heated through.
MAKE TACOS
Once the pork is cooled, shred using two forks or clean hands, then add it to the sauce, and stir to combine. Lay the tortillas flat on the bench and spread with the mayonnaise. Add some of the slaw mix then top with the barbecue pulled pork. Fold the tortillas in half.
TO SERVE
Divide the barbecue-pulled pork tacos between plates. Serve with sweet potato chips, remaining slaw mix and your favourite sauce on the side.
