Method
Whisk the achiote, citrus juices, garlic, oregano, cumin and salt together.
Coat the pork and marinate in the fridge for at least 4 hours.
Line a deep heatproof dish with banana leaf or baking paper and add the pork and marinade.
Fold over the leaf, cover tightly with foil and air fry at 170°C for 55-65 minutes.
Stir once after 40 minutes and add a splash of water if the dish looks dry.
Check the pork is piping hot and pulls apart easily, then shred it in the juices.
Spread the pork in the basket and air fry at 200°C for 5-7 minutes to crisp the edges.
Toss the onion with the lime, vinegar, sugar and salt.
Box the pork with tostadas, cabbage, pickled onion and coriander.
