Chicharrón en Salsa Verde is a popular Mexican dish made with crispy pork cracklings simmered in a sauce made of tomatillo, green chilies and cilantro.

A delicious filling for tacos.

DIRECTIONS:

  1. In a blender place tomatillos, onion, garlic ad coriander, (1 chilli, optional). Liquidize.
  2. Heat oil in a deep pot. Fry the salsa. Add the pinch of sugar (this is to reduce the sourness of the tomatillos).
  3. Unpack the pork crackling and sieve to eliminate any extra flavours (peri-peri, BBQ, etc). Cut into small pieces and add to the salsa. Reduce heat and simmer covered for 5 minutes.
  4. Heat up the tortillas and have your guests make their own tacos. Add more hot salsa if preferred.

  Buen Provecho!
