Pork is such a friendly protein – it pairs well with almost everything! We particularly love it with makrut lime and lemongrass to create a dish full of Vietnamese-inspired flavours, like these zesty, zingy tacos! The recent wet weather conditions across the East Coast have impacted our regular supply of fresh ingredients and as such, what you receive may be slightly different to what’s pictured. Don’t worry, your recipe will be just as delicious!

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.
