Recipe and source notes

Mochomos

6–8 servings Source yield

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless pork shoulder (1 inch pieces)
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 small white or yellow onion, quartered
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups guacamole
  • 1 tomato, thinly sliced
  • 1 handful of shredded lettuce

Make it step by step

  1. Bring meat, water, onion and salt to a boil in a large saucepan. Lower heat, cover and let simmer until meat is very tender, 1 hour typical.
  2. Uncover and set heat to high, boil until most of the water has evaporated. Watch the meat closely and stir so it doesn't and burn.
  3. Using two forks shred the meat. Make sure no large chunks remain.
  4. Fry the pork in a lightly greased skillet until the meat turns a golden brown.
  5. Create a mound of the meat mixture on a plate and surround with guacamole.
  6. Garnish with shredded lettuce and tomato slices.
