Ingredients: 710 g pack Essential British Pork Shoulder Steaks; 1 peach, cut into wedges; 1 echalion shallot, sliced into rings; 300 g pack Gran Luchito Mexican Soft Taco Wraps (or make your own), to serve; Coriander, roughly chopped, to serve; 2 little gem lettuces, leaves separated, to serve; Lime wedges, to serve

Classic pork al pastors are often roasted with pineapples, but here, Honey & Co used peaches instead. It’s a quick and easy way to cook pork steaks, and although the traditional cooking method is on a large rotating vertical spit skewer, you can roast these in a hot oven and get a great result. Great with Spicy, smoky chilli salsa

710g pack Essential British Pork Shoulder Steaks
1 peach, cut into wedges
1 echalion shallot, sliced into rings
300g pack Gran Luchito Mexican Soft Taco Wraps (or make your own), to serve
Coriander, roughly chopped, to serve
2 little gem lettuces, leaves separated, to serve
Lime wedges, to serve

For the marinade

1 peach, stone removed, roughly chopped
1 clove/s garlic
1 red chilli, deseeded and roughly chopped
1 echalion shallot, roughly chopped
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp sumac
1 tsp salt
1 tsp dried oregano
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp Cooks' Ingredients Ancho Chilli Paste

Cut the pork into 2cm thick strips and put into a bowl. Blitz all the marinade ingredients together to form a paste, mix into the pork, then cover and chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
Preheat the oven to 240ºC, gas mark 8 or as hot as it will go. Spread the pork strips and the marinade on a large roasting tray.
Roast in the hot oven for 6 minutes. Add the peach wedges and shallot rings to the tray, mix together and roast for the final 15 minutes, until the pork is cooked through with no pink meat and juices that run clear. Mix and transfer to a serving plate.
Heat the taco wraps on a tray in the oven for 1 minute, then take everything to the table for everyone to assemble some meat on a taco, some coriander, lettuce, lime juice and salsa, if liked, then fold in half and enjoy.
