Pork Tostadas

This is an easy to make dish for a quick flavorful dinner 


Ingredients: 
3 4" corn tortillas
1 1/2 Cup of Soybean Oil (any light oil such as safflower or canola will suffice)
1/2 lb of ground pork (This recipe also works with http://www.skinnytaste.com/2012/04/slow-cooker-pulled-pork.html quite well)
1 Red Onion (small)
1 Red Pepper (small)
3 - 4 sprays of olive oil (if not using a Misto, use about 1 Tbsp of oil)
8oz of shredded Mozzarella cheese
1/4 - 1/3 Cup of Barbecue Sauce (http://raygasnick.blogspot.com/2012/05/simple-and-tasty-barbecue-sauce.html) 
Kosher or Sea Salt*
Black Pepper*
Paprika*
Cumin*
Coriander*


Preparation:
Preheat oven to 375. 


Dice up onions and peppers into small (less than 1/4" dice). Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with the olive oil until it gets warm. Drop in diced onions and peppers and let them sizzle until they become translucent and soft. Flatten and season ground pork with salt, pepper, paprika, cumin, and coriander to your liking. Add pork to the skillet and break up into small pieces with a spoon. Pork will turn white when cooked so continuously break it up so that all sides cook evenly.  Pour in barbecue sauce, stir together and reduce heat to low and cover. 


In a 2 qt stainless saucepan (gets hotter than nonstick) heat up the oil until it is between 275 and 325 degrees. Drop in one corn tortilla and fry until crispy (flipping as needed).  Once the tortilla has crisped, remove and place on a paper towel covered plate (lightly salt).  Repeat this process two more times with the other two tortillas. 


On an oven safe tray, place 3 tortillas and cover lightly with cheese. Pour heaping spoonfuls of the pork mixture onto the cheese and cover with remaining cheese. Bake for about 10 - 15 minutes or until cheese has melted. 


Serving: 
Serve hot and eat like a flat taco (do not try to cut it up as it will not cut well).
