Ingredients
For The Pulled Pork
- 1 ½ kg /3.3 lb of pork shoulder (boneless and with no rind just a bit of the fat, ask your butcher to prepare it for you)
- 1 cup of orange juice
½ cup of apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon rapeseed oil
- 1 red chilli, finely chopped
- 1 fennel bulb, finely chopped
- 4 spring onions, finely chopped
- 1 handful of fresh coriander, finely chopped, including stems
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 bay leaf
- 3 fat garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Gran Luchito Chipotle Paste
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 sachet of Gran Luchito Cantina Beans
Directions
- Place the meat in the slow cooker and all the ingredients listed for pulled pork. There’s no specific order or fancy way about it! Just add all the ingredients into the slow cooker (apart from the cantina beans), cover with a lid and let it cook on high mode for 5 to 6 hours.
- In the meantime prepare your Mexican Rice and the quick pickled onions by adding the red onion into a small bowl with the lime, vinegar, extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of salt. Let it rest until the onion softens and gets a lovely pink colour.
- When your pork is ready, uncover and shred the tender meat with the help of two forks. Add the Cantina Beans and mix in with the meat, then combine everything, and reserve. (Reheat before serving, you can do this in a baking dish covered with tin foil in the oven at 180°C / 350°F, for 20 min).
- Warm up two Burrito Wraps over a hot pan and once warm place them over your kitchen counter, they should overlap slightly. Then add a good amount of Mexican rice and a good amount of warm pulled pork.
- Top your burrito with slices of avocado, spoonfuls of Chipotle Salsa, the red pickled onions and a spoonful of creme fraiche, you can also add grated cheese here.
- Wrap up your burrito tightly and serve whilst it’s still warm. You can reheat your burritos in the oven if necessary. Repeat the same process to make more burritos, and enjoy!
