Cooking 11: Did I hear Someone Calling For Some Homemade Tacos? Step-by-step recipe

Honestly, having to be living in this multicultural country of Malaysia and Singapore, it is never a problem to think of what to eat. From street food to high-end restaurants there is always something for you to choose from. However, if you wish to have something different and it's totally out of your league, finding this food could be pretty hard or even too expensive for a small portion.

Mexicans food like tacos is a very good example where it's perfect for some of us who are craving for something different with a variety of choices. But, what's better than having it at home with friends and family. It's not only an excellent taste but it's extremely entertaining to be devoured. Lucky thing is in Asia, fresh produces are fairly cheap. So, why not try to recreate it yourself? Just a little twist and turn to suit your taste buds.

So, allow me to share my recipe.

Servings: 2 pax (12 tacos)

Braised Pork
Ingredients:

• 1000 ml of water
• 300 grams of pork shoulder
• 200 grams lean pork/pork belly
• 3 garlic cloves (crushed)
• 2 tablespoon of Tobasco sauce
• 1 tablespoon of Italian mix herbs
• Salt and pepper to taste

Salsa
Ingredients:

• 1 onion (chopped finely)
• 2 garlic cloves ( chopped finely)
• 4 tomatoes (chopped finely)
• a handful of cilantro (chopped finely)
• salt to taste

Toppings: Corn
Ingredients:

• 1 garlic clove (chopped finely)
• half a small onion (chopped finely)
• 1 stalk of cilantro (chopped finely)
• salt & pepper to taste

Toppings: Butter Shrimps
Ingredients:

• 200 grams of cooked shrimps
• 2 cloves of sliced garlic
• 1 tablespoon butter
• salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Finely chop all the measured ingredients like garlic, cilantro, and onion.

2. Boil 1litre of water, lightly blanch the pork to skim off the dirt. Reboil another litre of water with all the measured ingredients to braise the pork. Cook it on high heat for 20 minutes, turn it to low for another 60 minutes.

3. Pull the pork into tiny pieces.

4. Next, prepare the butter shrimps by blanching the shrimps then add garlic and butter to the pan and cook until fragrant. Add the cook shrimps and season it with salt and pepper.

5. Grill the sweetcorn until it's slightly charred. Add the chopped garlic, onion and cilantro into the into the corn, season it with salt and pepper. Mix until everything is fully combined.

6. Add all the chopped tomatoes, garlic, onions and cilantro in a blender. Slightly blend and then season it with salt.

7. Toast the tacos shell in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 5 minutes. Then serve it hot.

This is the end result of my recipe. I have to clarify that this is not an authentic recipe for Mexican taco, this is just my style of making tacos. Although it's not entirely authentic, it's definitely good to go.

Hope you enjoy the recipe :)
