Roast Pork For The Clay Cooker Recipes

Steps:

• Soak pork in salted water for 2 to 3 hours. Remove pork and rinse.
• With a paring knife, cut 3 1-inch deep holes in the pork roast, fill with salt, pepper, and a garlic clove.
• In a small bowl, mix mustard, paprika, oregano, salt, pepper, 1 crushed garlic clove, and crushed pepper. Cover the pork with the mustard paste.
• Coat inside of clay pot with non-stick cooking spray. Place pork inside clay pot; add beer, wine, lemon juice, water, tomato, onion, apple pieces, and remaining crushed garlic.
• Cover and place in a cold oven and set temperature for 385 degrees F. Cook for 2 1/2 hours or until meat falls off the bone. After the first hour turn the meat with a large fork and cook for an additional hour to hour and a half.
• Remove meat and let it stand for 10 minutes before carving. Arrange meat on a platter, pour part of the sauce over the meat and decorate with fresh parsley.

Steps:

• Put the sugar in a medium-size heavy-bottomed pot and cook over medium heat, shaking gently every once in a while, until it starts to melt. Start stirring with a fork and continue, crushing clumps of sugar so that the sugar melts evenly. When the sugar is liquid, continue to cook for another minute or so until it darkens, then remove from heat.
• Combine the chicken stock and fish sauce and carefully add at arm's length to the sugar (it will splutter and pop). Turn heat to medium high, return sugar mixture to the heat, and cook, stirring constantly, until well combined. (If the sugar clumps when you add the liquid, don't worry, it will melt again.)
• Add the shallots, garlic, ginger, pepper, chili if using, and the white portion of the scallions. Cook, stirring frequently, until the shallots are nicely softened, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add pork to the pot and bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, partly cover and simmer gently, stirring occasionally and adding a splash of stock or water if the pan looks too dry, until the pork is very tender and the liquid has reduced to a medium-thick sauce, about 1 hour.
• Remove from heat, add the green part of the scallions, and serve over steamed white rice.
