Instructions

Make The Pork

  • Preheat a large skillet over medium to high heat for a few minutes. Add the olive oil, onions, and garlic and stir for a minute. Cook for about 5 minutes until soft.
  • Add the ground pork and start breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Continue doing this until the turkey has cooked, about 8 – 10 minutes.
  • Add all the spices with the salt and pepper. Give a really good stir for about a minute
  • Add the water and tomato paste. Stir really well and reduce heat to low for about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.

Make The Sriracha Mayo

  • Combine the mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, garlic powder and lime juice. Stir to combine.

Heat The Tortilla Wraps & Assemble Tacos

  • Heat a cast iron skillet (or any skillet) over a high heat on the stove top. Place the tortilla on the skillet and heat each side for about a minute. Remove as heated and repeat for all.
  • Assemble tacos with the pork, sauce and your favourite toppings.
