Cookware

chef's knife · citrus juicer (optional) · colander · cutting board · measuring spoons · mixing bowls · nonstick skillet · stirring spoon · vegetable peeler

Directions

  1. Wash and dry all produce.
  2. Peel and finely dice the kiwis, then place them in a small bowl.
  3. Halve, pit, and scoop out the avocado flesh with a spoon; dice it small and add to the bowl with the kiwis.
  4. Trim the cucumber and dice it, then add it to the bowl with the fruit.
  5. Juice the lime into the bowl and season with salt and crushed red pepper. Stir the salsa to combine and set aside.
  6. Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat.
  7. Prepare the jalapeño: halve lengthwise, remove seeds and ribs, then finely dice. If you prefer less heat, remove seeds and ribs.
  8. Add a drizzle of oil to the hot skillet, then add the jalapeño, pork, and spices; cook, breaking up the meat, until browned and crumbly, about 4–5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  9. Warm the tortillas in a separate skillet, in the oven, or in the microwave, if desired.
  10. To serve, place tortillas on plates, top with the spicy pork, then spoon over the kiwi-cucumber-avocado salsa. Enjoy.

Two tips

  • Make the salsa up to a day ahead and refrigerate for quickerAssembly.
  • For milder heat, remove seeds and ribs from the jalapeño before dicing, or add a touch more lime on the side as a fresh purchase.
