Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Chop the tomato into 1cm pieces. Zest and halve the lime. Trim and thinly slice the spring onion. Grate the cheese. Drain the sweetcorn in a sieve then pop it into a medium bowl. Drain and rinse the black beans using the same sieve. Pop half the black beans in another bowl and mash with a fork.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the pork mince and cook until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. Stir in the garlic, tomato puree and chipotle paste (add less chipotle if you don't like heat), then cook for 1 min more.
Add the water for the pork (see ingredients for amount) and chicken stock paste to the mince, stirring well to combine. Bring to a simmer, then add the black beans (whole and mashed). Stir to combine and cook until thickened, 1-2 mins. Remove from the heat, then taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
Heat another large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil). Once hot, add the sweetcorn into the pan and cook until charred, 5-6 mins. Stir only twice during this time - you want the sweetcorn to pick up some nice colour. Meanwhile, pop the tomato and spring onion into the empty sweetcorn bowl. Add the lime zest, a squeeze of lime juice and a drizzle of oil, then season with salt and pepper. Mix to combine, then set aside.
While the corn is charring, pop the tortillas onto a baking tray and into the oven to warm through, 1-2 mins. Once the corn is charred, mix into the tomato and spring onion. Taste and season with more salt, pepper or lime juice if needed.
Lay the tortillas on your plates (3 per person) and top with the chipotle pork. Spoon over the charred sweetcorn salsa, then sprinkle with the cheese to finish. TIP: Tacos are best enjoyed eaten by hand - get stuck in! Enjoy!
