Mexican-style pork with beans
Background
This Mexican-style pork with beans is made with leftover roast pork. You can add more cayenne or some Jalapeno for a fiery version. Serve it in taco or tortilla wraps (with salsa and guacamole), alternatively with steamed rice and a crispy salad. If dairy is not an issue, you can add a dollop of sour cream, yoghurt or some grated cheese.
