Ingredients

  • 1 Lime
  • ½ Green cabbage
  • 1 Red onion
  • 2 Tomato
  • 432 grams Pineapple chunks in juice
  • 2 tsps Honey
  • 2 tsp Olive oil first
  • 1 tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 2 tsp Olive oil second
  • 450 grams Pork mince
  • 1 tbsp Mexican seasoning
  • 50 grams Barbecue sauce
  • 8 Tortillas mini
  • 1 Oil spray

Instructions

PREP INGREDIENTS

  • Finely grate the lime zest, then juice. Thinly slice the cabbage with a sharp knife or mandoline. Peel and finely chop the onion and tomato. Drain the pineapple pieces and reserve the juice.

MAKE SLAW & SALSA

  • Combine 2 tsp of lime juice and the first measure of oil in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the cabbage and mayonnaise and toss to coat. In a separate large bowl combine 2 tsp lime juice and 2 tsp reserved pineapple juice. Add the onion and tomato and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.

COOK PINEAPPLE

  • Heat a medium frypan over medium-high heat. Add the pineapple chunks, drizzle with honey and cook, stirring regularly, for 5-6 mins, until the pineapple is caramelised. Add the pineapple to the salsa and stir to combine.

COOK PORK

  • Heat the second measure of oil in the same pan over medium-high heat. Cook the pork mince, breaking up the lumps with a spoon, for 3-4 mins, until browned. Reduce the heat to medium, add the Mexican seasoning, barbecue sauce and remaining pineapple juice and cook, stirring, for 2-3 mins, until reduced and sticky.

WARM TORTILLAS

  • Meanwhile, spray both sides of the tortillas with oil spray. Heat a separate large frypan on medium-high heat and warm the tortillas for 2 mins on each side or until crisp (if they puff up, prick them with the tip of a knife to release steam).

TO SERVE

  • Divide the tortillas among plates. Top with the slaw, sticky pork and pineapple and tomato salsa. Sprinkle with lime zest to serve.
