Cook the Pork

In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the cubed pork and cook until browned on all sides.

Prepare the Dough

In a mixing bowl, combine corn masa harina, water, and salt. Mix until a dough forms. If too dry, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time.

Shape the Tacos

Divide dough into 8 equal balls. Using a tortilla press or rolling pin, flatten each ball into a thin circle.

Combine Ingredients

In a bowl, mix the thinly sliced red onion, lime juice, and salt. Let it marinate while you prepare the other ingredients.

Prepare the Spicy Mayo

Mix Mayo and Sriracha

In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and sriracha sauce. Adjust sriracha to taste for desired spiciness.
