Carnitas in Red Sauce

We went to a party and were given some carnitas, and since Jorge doesn't like to eat the same thing two days in a row, I got creative and used the same carnitas to make a different version, and he loved it 😊👍✨♥️ (You can also make this with cooked, fried, and shredded pork) 👍🏵️

Steps

  1. 1

    I didn't peel the potatoes, but that's up to you. Cut them into medium cubes and cook them with a little salt (Remove them from the water when they are almost done, still a LITTLE HARD)

  2. 2

    Blend the tomatoes, peppers, onion, and cumin with a little water

  3. 3

    Heat the carnitas in a pot, and once they are hot, add the blended sauce. Let it simmer over medium heat until it changes color

  4. 4

    Once it changes color, add the drained potatoes and let them cook until fully done. Check the salt; in my case, it didn't need more because the carnitas were already salty, and with the sauce, they turned out great ♥️✨

  5. 5

    You can leave it on the heat longer until the excess water evaporates or to your liking 👍✨ and that's it, we're done 🎉🎉👏♥️🏵️
