    Wash and disinfect the meat, and prepare all other ingredients.

    In a tortilla press, flatten the masa, spread a little bean paste, and fold into a triangular shape. Then cook it on a griddle.

    Finally, cut the carnitas and place them on the tetela, garnish with guacachile, radish, and purslane or any herb of your choice. Add cheese foam for a creamy flavor.
