Gringas

Description

Gringas is a typical Mexican dish made with flour tortillas filled with al pastor marinated pork meat, cheese, and, most commonly, pineapple slices, although onions, chili sauce, and coriander can all be added to the dish according to the customer's preference. The combination of these ingredients is then grilled in the same manner as a quesadilla . The tortillas are usually folded in half and consumed like a taco . The name of the dish, a feminine form of gringo , is believed to have come from the idea that flour tortillas are more popular than corn tortillas north of the Mexican border.
