Pork Carnitas with Black Beans: Carnitas - or “small meats” - are all the rage these days, and perfect for dinner parties served family-style. Simply set out a pot of braised meat, another of beans, a stack of warmed corn tortillas and all the accompaniments - chopped tomatoes, onions, avocado, salsa and sour cream and let guests serve themselves. For each carnita, spread beans on a tortilla, top with a small pile of braised pork and whatever toppings you like, wrap and eat. |
