Trieste Pork Stew Recipe Foodcom

Steps:

• In a Dutch Oven, heat the oil over medium heat.
• Season the pork with salt and pepper and add to the oil and sear on all sides, working in batches if necessary.
• Add the sliced onions and cook until they are browned and soft, about 10 minutes.
• Add the wine and allow it to evaporate completely.
• Add the paprika, bay leaves, rosemary.
• Stir in tomato paste.
• Cook for 3-4 minutes over high heat, then stir in the chicken stock.
• Reduce heat to simmer, cover, and cook about 1.5-2 hours, until the sauce has thickened.
• Stir in the lemon juice and season well with salt and pepper.
• Serve immediately with buttered hot pasta.

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven pan, put the butter and the cubed pork. Cook until all the pork is browned, about 30 minutes.
• Add the onion,and the chicken bouillon and a little chicken stock. Let this simmer until tender (this is how you get good gravy on the stew).
• When pork is done, add the vegetables.
• Stir all together and add the chicken broth and enough water to cover the vegetables.
• Simmer until the vegetables are done.
• To thicken the gravy, I use the peppered gravy mix in a 1/2 cup water.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a heavy Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
• In a bowl mix together the flour, seasoning salt and pepper.
• Coat the pork in the flour mixture then brown well on all sides in the oil (working in batches) then remove to a bowl.
• Add in the onion, garlic, sage and crushed pepper flakes; saute for about 8 minutes.
• Return the pork to the pot and any juices from the plate.
• Add in remaining ingredients (along with any other ingredients such as potatoes, carrots or any other veggies) mix to combine and season with salt and pepper.
• Simmer over medium heat until pork is very tender (about 1 - 1-1/2 hours).

Steps:

• Start by getting your biggest flameproof casserole dish and sealing the pork chunks in the oil - they don't have to be very well browned. Do in batches, then transfer to a plate and tip three-quarters of the onions, the celery, bay and oregano into the dish. Add a splash more oil, if you need, and fry gently until softened.
• Tip in the spices, stir for 1 min to toast, then return the pork to the dish. Crumble in the stock cube and stir in the tomatoes, cocoa, sugar, 2 tbsp of the vinegar, the zest and juice from 1 orange, and 3 of the chilli halves. Bring to a simmer, then cover and leave to bubble for 1 hr.
• Meanwhile, finely chop the reserved chilli half and mix with the remaining onions, the spring onions, and red wine vinegar and the zest and juice from the last orange. Keep cold in the fridge.
• After 1 hr, stir the sweet potatoes and red peppers into the stew, then re-cover and simmer for another 30 mins.
• When the stew has about 15 mins to go, make the dumplings. Rub the butter into the flour until it resembles fine crumbs, then stir in the cornmeal, bicarb and sweetcorn. Finally, mix in the buttermilk and all but 1 tbsp of the egg to make a soft dough. Season with some salt and roll the mixture into 12 soft dumplings, then roll in a little more cornmeal to coat the tops. Brush the tops with the reserved beaten egg.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Stir the beans into the stew, then taste for seasoning. Sit 6 of the dumplings on top of the stew and the rest on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. Put both in the oven - the stew without its lid - and cook for 25 mins until the dumplings are golden and risen.
• Carry the stew straight to the table, and sprinkle over a little more oregano before spooning into bowls. Serve the extra dumplings alongside for those who fancy another one, and the onion relish.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a flameproof and ovenproof dish. Add the onions, celery, bay and thyme, and fry for about 8 mins until softened. Add the pork and cook for a few mins until it changes colour, but it doesn't need to brown as you don't want to overcook it.
• Stir in the mustard powder, garlic, flour and vinegar, then pour in the bouillon, stirring to prevent any lumps forming.
• Add the apple, leeks and carrots, bring the liquid to the boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover the pan and simmer for 1 hr, stirring occasionally, until the pork and vegetables are tender.
• When the stew is nearly cooked, heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. To make the dumplings, tip the flour, baking powder, mustard powder, parsley and thyme into a bowl and stir to combine. Put the yogurt in a jug, make up to 100ml with water, then stir in the oil. Lightly stir the liquid into the flour to make a soft, slightly sticky dough. Divide the dough equally into eight and shape into balls. Drop them on top of the stew, drizzling each one with the remaining oil. Bake for 20 mins until the dumplings are golden. Scatter with the extra thyme, if you like, before serving.
