Instructions
Caramelized pork:
Marinate the pork with shallots, garlic, chili, olive oil, cilantro, crushed coriander seeds, and lime juice for at least an hour (best overnight).
Heat a saute pan over medium to medium-high heat w/ 1 tbsp coconut oil. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Once the pork is cooked through, scope out the meat and set aside to cool.
Reduce the remaining liquid in the saute pan over medium-high heat until the sauce is thickened. Pour the sauce over the pork and give it a gentle toss.
Garnish with your favorite condiments - mine is cilantro, shallots, lime, and cucumbers !
Paleo tortilla:
Whisk the eggs, coconut oil, and water.. Combine the dry and wet ingredients and mix well until no lumps. Set aside and let the batter sit for 15 minutes.
Heat a saute pan over medium-high heat with 1-2 tsp of oil. Ladle about 40 ml (about 3 tbsp) of the batter to the center of the pan and immediately start swirling around to evenly coat the bottom of the pan. The batter will get cooked pretty quickly about 1 minute per side.
