      #MexicanChallenge.

      I didn’t know which dish to participate in the challenge with because I don’t have much experience in Mexican cuisine. But in the end I wanted to do my bit, even if it’s the last day. I’ve decided on tacos, but something different. My proposal is pork ear tacos. I wanted to put it crispy in the taco, but it would be too dry, to remedy this, I roasted some pork bones and some vegetables in the oven, with that I made a broth and then I put it to reduce, until it was a slightly thick sauce. I made a pico de gallo with tomato, red onion, cilantro, jalapeños and lime. I also made a mayonnaise with chipotle chiles. I heated the corn tortillas and kept them warm. I bought the ear already cooked, because I had never cooked it before and I didn’t know how it would turn out. I cut it into very small pieces and sautéed it in the wok, when it was toasted I started to add the sauce little by little until the ear was creamy. I filled the taco, added the pico de gallo, the chipotle mayonnaise and some cilantro leaves. For me the result is amazing.

          Me encantan los tacos y la oreja a la plancha; aunque mucha gente no la valora tanto, es un manjar que deberíamos probar alguna vez.

                ¡Hola, Ttore! 🌮 Qué gran cierre para el #MexicanChallenge, ¡y con un giro tan original! Los tacos de oreja de cerdo tienen una presentación súper apetecible y bien cuidada: los colores del pico de gallo resaltan y la textura cremosa de la mayonesa equilibra visualmente. ¡Bravo! ¿Repetirás esta receta ahora que ya la has probado? ¿Podemos decir que es “receta ganada”?
