    In a small bowl, mix the ground cumin, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.

  • 2

    Rub the spice mixture evenly over all sides of the pork shoulder.

  • 7

    While the pork crisps, whisk together the Greek yogurt and the juice from the lime to create a zesty crema.

  • 8

    Warm the corn tortillas in a dry pan or over an open flame until pliable.
