Recipe's preparation

Method

Wash and dry the pork.

Rub half of the spice mix over the meat.

Place a trivet in the deep Varoma basket. (This is to stop the meat covering the steam vents.)

Add meat on top of the trivet, cover with varoma lid and put aside.

Place peeled garlic cloves and onion into TM bowl. Chop 4 sec/speed 9.

Scrape down bowl.

Add the oranges to the bowl. Puree 5 sec/Speed 9.

Scrape down the bowl, add 500g water and 500g liquid stock to the bowl.

Place the TM lid on the bowl and stack the varoma on the lid. Cook 99 min/Varoma/Speed 2.

Add 400g of additional water to the bowl. Cook 50 min/Varoma/ Speed 2.

Add a further 300g of water to the bowl. Cook 40 min/Varoma/ Speed 2.

Transfer the pork to a Thermo Server and use 2 forks to shred the meat.

Pour out the orange liquid from TM bowl into jug. Measure out about two cups of liquid and put in TM bowl, add the remainder of your Mexican seasoning (about 20g) and blitz on speed 9 for 5 seconds.
Pour liquid over the shredded meat and stir it through until it is well combined.
Enjoy!

Tip

I used a store bought Mexican mix but you use a homemade one or use spices and herbs you enjoy.
Enjoy on burritos or a burger!

Thermomix Model

Recipe is created for
TM 6

For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

TM 5

If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
