- 500 g minced pork
- 8 lettuce leaves
- 1 Tomato
- 1 Avocado
- 1 Lemon
- 1 Spring onion
- 2 Garlic cloves
- Ground cumin
- Olive oil
- 1 Chili pepper
- Paprika to taste
Start by finely chopping the spring onion and garlic. In a frying pan, heat a splash of olive oil. When hot, sauté the spring onion and garlic until they begin to brown. Then add the minced pork. Cook over medium heat until well done.
Once the pork is ready, add the paprika, chili pepper, and ground cumin. Season with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add a bit of Worcestershire sauce and let it evaporate before removing the meat from the heat.
Separate the large lettuce leaves to use as a base. Wash them and dry them thoroughly. Set aside.
Next, chop the avocado and tomatoes. Now, in each lettuce leaf, place a spoonful of the pork mixture and top it with tomato and avocado cubes. Drizzle with a bit of lemon juice and serve. You can garnish with a few slices of lemon.
