The habanero chilli grows in Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula, and its fruity, fiery flavour has made it a favourite among cooks throughout the Americas, adding oomph to salsas and marinades. It is a wonderful match for fatty pork, particularly when softened with maple syrup and zesty lime. Add the sweet acidity of pineapple in today’s delicious salsa, shut your eyes and you could almost be on a sun-soaked Mexican playa eating smoky, grilled pork straight off the comal.
