AuthenticMexican Rice. These Smothered Sweet PorkBurritos are the top of my list. Then you toss some of that shredded pork goodness into a tortilla with some yummy cilantro-lime rice, black beans and cheese
At there most brilliantly basic, tacos will come as a few folded corn tortillas filled with beef, lamb or pork pieces, a selection of salsas and some fresh lime pieces
My niece, who is a restaurant expert in her own right, knows that I am constantly on the quest to find authenticMexican, but more specifically Mayan cuisine, in Winnipeg
A few years ago my sister gave me a recipe for authenticPork Verde (her friend’s mother brought it from Mexico), which I have made many times and tweaked to the point I am happy with it and have shared it at the bottom
As I gathered all the necessary ingredients for a good chili, I was reminded that next time, besides eating at the same place, I absolutely have to go shopping in one of the many neighborhood bodegas to get authenticMexican spices from Baltimore
We love authenticMexican carne asada like we used to enjoy in when we lived in San Diego. I use cloves, cilantro and Mexican dried oregano in my marinade
To that end, I buy prepared masa from a great local authenticMexican restaurant. Most grocery stores sell them in the ethnic foods /mexican foods aisle but if you can't find them at yours, you can check them out at MexGrocer
