Preparation

Rub the pork with the cumin, paprika and a good sprinkle of salt and pepper.


Add a film of oil to a frying pan and cook the onion and garlic over medium heat for 5 minutes until starting to soften.


Transfer the onion and garlic to a slow cooker. Add the pork.


Add the tomatoes, sweet corn, chilli beans with their sauce to the slow cooker. Pour in the chicken stock or water along with the chipotle peppers and oregano.


Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the pork is tender enough to shred easily with a fork. Check at times to make sure there is enough liquid.


Remove the pork from the slow cooker and let it cool enough to handle. Remove any visible fat and also bone. Shred the meat using two forks.


Return the pork to the slow cooker and toss to coat with mixture.


Serve the pork with tortilla chips, cabbage, avocado, a dollop of sour cream and a lime wedge. Sprinkle with spring onion and coriander.
