Cooking Steps
Drain the pineapple slices (see ingredients) and roughly chop. Finely chop the garlic. Finely chop the cucumber. Thinly slice the tomato into half-moons. Shred the cos lettuce (see ingredients).
Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Cook the pineapple, tossing, until browned and slightly charred, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside to cool slightly.
Wipe out the pan then return to a medium-high heat with a generous drizzle of olive oil. Add the garlic, Tex-Mex spice blend and pulled pork and cook until fragrant and slightly crisp, 2 minutes. Season to taste with pepper.
Add the cucumber and white wine vinegar to the bowl with the pineapple. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Season to taste.
Heat the mini flour tortillas in a sandwich press or on a plate in the microwave for 10 second bursts, until warmed through.
Build your tacos by spreading a layer of smokey aioli on the base of a tortilla. Top with cos lettuce, Mexican pulled pork, shredded Cheddar cheese, tomato slices and the charred pineapple salsa.

- Suggestions: Some recommend adding chilli for extra kick. Others suggest using less Tex-Mex seasoning and pairing with garlic aioli instead of smoky.
