I think using the quince paste really elevated this dish and made it unique.
#Tacos al pastor receta estilo monterrey how to#
I didn’t have any pineapple handy, and I needed to figure out how to use that quince paste that had been sitting in my pantry for so long, so this recipe uses quince paste instead of pineapple. I tried to come up with a low carb alternative to the pineapple but really it is such a classic addition to al pastor that it’s probably better to go ahead and use pineapple, but just use it more sparingly. In one cup of pineapple there are 22 grams of carbs and 16 grams of sugar. There is just no getting around how much sugar is in pineapple. The pineapple is a problem for low carb or keto people. Traditional tacos al pastor are marinated over pineapple slices and topped with fresh chopped pineapples. The recipe below has a “low-ish” carb count. Once you have decided on the meat for your tacos, why not lay it all out for guests or family in the style of a taco bar? you can go wild with Mexican accompaniments like avocados, pickled onions, different cheeses, radishes, cilantro, guacamole, etc. Of course you can use a regular skillet or pan for browning tortillas, but a comal seems to give add that elusive extra punch of flavor.Ĭheck this fish tacos post for the details on browning tortillas on a comal The classic way to serve tacos is with a basket of warm corn tortillas browned on a comal (a flat griddle). This crispy carnita recipe is my favorite for seared crispy pork tacos.īeef birria quesatacos with a side of birria dipping consommé How to Serve Because I am striving to make everything as easy as possible these days, I simply added it to the Mexican-spiced sauce to finish. Whichever version you choose (or combination of versions), traditional tacos al pastor call for the meat to be “crisped” or seared on the stove top. This version usually has more onion and can be slightly more charred than the other three versions. The guisado taco is instead cooked in its own juices and fat. Guisado means “stew” in Spanish, and this version is actually not cooked on a grill spit like the other versions. The pineapple is also optional in this lesser-known version of a taco al pastor. This version is more typically found in the northeast parts of Mexico and the state of Monterrey.
Which is no coincidence, as this version has more achiote added to the marinade to give it a deeper red color. It does not store any personal data.Trompo rojo literally means, “red spinning top”.

So what are you waiting for to throw for your next taquiza(taco party)? The oven roasted method is not traditional, but just a homecook’s version. As it roasts, the meat is shaved off to serve in tacos with it’s signature pineapple garnish. The meat is typically sliced into thin layers, marinated and then stacked high on a big trompo(spit). The traditional pork al pastor is cooked on a large rotiserrie, based on Shawarma split grilled meat brought by the Lebanese immigrants to central Mexico. It can also be stored in the freezer to use for a later date. The flavors will just intensify after a few days. I found that the oven method worked better for me and yields a very tender pork! If you get a chance, I would suggest preparing the al pastor recado(chile marinade) ahead of time. I have prepared this recipe on several occasions on my stove top. Looking for a delicious taco recipe for a party? This recipe for al pastor al horno(roasted pork) will make you the hit of the night! The combination of flavors from the recado(chile marinade) and the sweet pineapple are just right.
