Cooking Steps

Bake the fries
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut potato into fries. 
• Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. 
• Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.  
TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.   

Char the pineapple
2

• Meanwhile, drain pineapple slices. Finely shred baby cos lettuce.  
• Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook pineapple slices until lightly charred, 
2-3 minutes each side. Transfer pineapple to a chopping board and roughly chop. 
Little cooks: Help wash and tear the lettuce leaves!

Cook the pork & bake pita
3

• Return frying pan to a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. 
• Cook pork strips and mild Caribbean jerk seasoning in batches, tossing 
occasionally, until golden and cooked through, 2-4 minutes. 
• Transfer to a bowl. 
• Bake pita bread directly on wire oven rack until heated through, 2-3 minutes.  

Finish & serve
4

• In a large bowl, combine cos, charred pineapple and a drizzle of white wine 
vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 
• Halve pita bread and spread with lime & chilli mayo. Fill with some cos salad and 
Caribbean pork. 
• Serve with potato fries and any remaining salad. Enjoy!  
ELEVATE ME: If you’ve added extra ingredients to this recipe, when the fries have 5 
minutes remaining, sprinkle with Cheddar cheese and bake until melted and golden. 
Slice lime into wedges and squeeze into the salad. Add coriander to pita. 
Little cooks: Take charge and help assemble the pita pockets!
