tekobo Posted July 28, 2023 Report Share Posted July 28, 2023 🤪😛😄 Beaner schnitzel. I can't stop laughing! Looking forward to hearing how your sister and her family enjoy your Al Pastor. It's been another great contribution to the forum from @Troble and, once you have sourced and mastered the achiote, it is a doddle to make. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troble Posted July 30, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2023 @PVPAUL nicely done. I bet making those tortillas put it over the top @tekoboi like to let mine sit and crisp up as you mentioned 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remi Posted January 2, 2024 Report Share Posted January 2, 2024 My first go at this one with a ‘boys night’ at my place. So so good- perhaps the best KK cook ever. Thanks @Troble for posting the amazing recipe and tips. A real winner. IMG_7767.MOV 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tekobo Posted Friday at 11:07 AM Report Share Posted Friday at 11:07 AM Well, please wish me luck. Tomorrow is the day. I am at our place in Italy and I have promised to serve our Mexican neighbour and her Italian husband home made tacos. That involved making the fresh masa at home in England earlier in the week, vacuum packing it and transporting it in the car. I bought some pork shoulder from the market this morning and marinaded it in the bright red marinade for al pastor. I also bought a pineapple and have scoped out some fish to buy tomorrow so we can have some fish tacos for starters. A brave (or foolish) move, trying to cook someone else's native food and telling them that you do it well! I will report back after the event. In the meantime here is a couple of photos of the work in progress. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tekobo Posted 23 hours ago Report Share Posted 23 hours ago Woo hoo! Our Mexican neighbour helped with making the tortillas. I think her expectations were low and this Al Pastor recipe far, far exceeded her and her husband's expectations. Hurrah for @Troble. I made fish tacos to start, followed by Al Pastor and then finished with pineapple and ginger sorbet. I was touched by the fact that she has not been able to get to Mexico for a while (looking after sick old dog) and so was super happy to have the taste of Mexico brought to her. And her husband loved rolling the meat in the fat that accumulated in the bottom of the pan. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
