MEXICAN PORK AND BEANS

Steps:

• Begin by removing the chorizo from their casings. Set a medium saucepan over medium heat and coat with a little canola oil. Add the chorizo and use a spoon to break up the pieces into smaller chunks. Add the garlic and jalapeno. Allow the chorizo to cook and render for 4 to 5 minutes. When the oil is fragrant and red from the chorizo spices, add the cumin and black beans (including the liquid from one of the cans). Add 1/2 cup water, bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to come together. Add the lime juice and season with salt and pepper.
• Serve the beans in a large bowl garnished with crumbled Cotija cheese and chopped cilantro.

PORK CHOPS WITH WHITE BEANS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, and rosemary; season generously with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until onion is golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes.
• In a small bowl, whisk together broth and tomato paste. Pour mixture into skillet; stir in beans. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until beans are coated evenly and sauce is thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, generously season both sides of pork chops with salt and pepper. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook pork (in 2 batches, if necessary) until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve on top of bean mixture.

• Heat the oil in a 6-quart Dutch oven or other large, heavy pot over medium-high until hot but not smoking. Add the pork and brown well on all sides, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove the pork from the pot, add the onion and sauté, stirring occasionally until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté, stirring frequently, 1 minute.
• Add the pork, along with the beans, tomatoes, greens, mustard, salt and pepper and enough chicken stock to cover. Stir well and bring the mixture to a simmer.
• Cover and transfer the pot to the oven and bake until the beans are tender, 2 1/2 to 3 hours, checking every half-hour or so after the first hour and adding water as needed if all the liquid has been absorbed.

PORK CASSOULET

Steps:

• Heat oven to 140C/120C fan/gas 1. Put a large ovenproof pan (with a tight-fitting lid) on a high heat. Add your fat and diced meat, cook for a few mins to seal the edges, giving it a quick stir to cook evenly. Reduce the heat to low, add the sliced onion, whole garlic cloves, carrot and fennel seeds, and cook gently to soften the veg for a few mins.
• Pour over the red wine vinegar, scraping any meaty bits off the bottom of the pan. Add the stock, tomato purée, and half the rosemary and parsley. Bring to the boil and simmer for 10 mins, then season, cover with a lid and put into the oven for 2 hrs, removing the lid for the final hour of cooking. Stir occasionally and add the beans with 30 mins to go.
• Remove the pan from the oven and heat the grill. Scatter the top with the remaining herbs and breadcrumbs, drizzle a little oil over the top, and return to the oven for 5-10 mins, until the breadcrumbs are golden. Serve with crusty bread and green veg.

CANNELLINI WITH PORK AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Soak beans:
• Combine beans with enough water to cover by 2 inches in a 4-to 5-quart pot. Bring to a boil and boil 2 minutes, then remove from heat and let stand, covered, while you cook the pork.
• Cook pork while beans soak:
• Bring pork and water (4 quarts) to a simmer in an 8-to 10-quart heavy pot. Skim any foam, then add bay leaves and oregano. Simmer, uncovered, 1 1/4 hours.
• Cook beans and roast tomatoes
• Drain beans and add to pork mixture along with onions, garlic, rosemary, and 1 tsp each of salt and pepper. Simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until beans are just tender, 35 to 45 minutes.
• While beans simmer, preheat oven to 475°F with rack in upper third. Toss tomatoes with oil and spread out, cut sides up, in a large 4-sided sheet pan. Stir together sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and sprinkle over tomatoes. Roast until tomatoes begin to shrivel and caramelize on bottom, about 45 minutes.
• Finish Stew:
• When beans are tender, scoop out about 4 cups beans with a slotted spoon and coarsely mash.
• Return mashed beans to stew along with tomatoes, parsley, and 1 teaspoon salt and simmer 3 minutes. Discard bay leaves and season stew with salt and pepper.

CONFIT PORK BELLY WITH CANNELLINI BEANS & ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Score the skin of the pork with a knife, then put in a shallow dish and rub all over with the sea salt, half the rosemary and all the garlic. Cover the dish with cling film and leave in the fridge for at least 7 hrs, preferably overnight. While the pork is being salted, soak the beans in plenty of cold water overnight.
• Heat oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2. Wash the pork well and pat dry. Heat the duck fat and half the vegetable oil in a deep, flameproof casserole dish or roasting tin until the fat has melted, then carefully lower in the pork. Cover with foil and put in the oven. Cook for about 4 hrs or until the pork is very tender.
• Leave the pork to cool slightly, then remove from the fat and cool completely. Alternatively, the pork can be kept in the fat in the fridge, covered, for up to 3 months. The fat itself can be reused.
• Remove the bones and any sinew or membrane from the pork.
• Press the pork between two roasting trays with heavy weights on top (such as cans). This process will shape and compact the meat so that it's easier to portion. Leave the meat to press in the fridge for at least 2 hrs. You can leave the pork to press overnight (the beans will be fine left soaking in water for up to 48 hrs, but change the water after 24 hrs).
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Drain the beans and tip into a large pan. Cover with about 5cm of fresh water. Bring to the boil, then cook over a medium heat for 40 mins until tender. Add the butter and the remaining rosemary to the beans, and cook for 5 mins until the beans and buttery water have emulsified. Season well and keep warm.
• Take the pork out of the fridge and cut into four equal pieces. Put a large, ovenproof non-stick sauté pan in the oven with the remaining oil and heat until almost smoking.
• Place the pork, skin-side down, in the hot vegetable oil (be careful as the oil will spit). Return the pork to the oven for 12 mins until heated through and the skin is crisp and golden.
• Divide the beans between four serving plates and top each with a piece of crispy pork. Serve with a crisp green salad.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH WHITE BEANS AND KALE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Heat a large high-sided cast-iron or oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. Pat the pork tenderloin dry and season with the smoked paprika, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. When the oil is shimmering, add the pork and sear on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer the pork to the prepared baking sheet and roast until it registers 145 to 150 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 20 to 25 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, set the same skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of oil if needed and add the peppers and onions. Add a splash of water to deglaze and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook until fragrant and slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Remove and discard the tough, fibrous ribs from the kale leaves, then roughly chop the kale leaves. Add the kale and use a wooden spoon to carefully fold the hot vegetables over the kale to help it begin to wilt. Continue to cook until the kale is bright green and wilted, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the white beans and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook until heated through, about 2 minutes more.
• Slice the rested pork on the diagonal and serve with the white bean and kale mixture.

INSTANT POT® PORK LOIN AND WHITE BEANS

Steps:

• Season pork loin with salt and pepper. Mix chili powder, cumin, and onion powder together; sprinkle on all sides of the pork.
• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Heat olive oil until hot. Cut pork loin in half to fit in the pot if necessary. Cook until browned on each side, about 5 minutes total. Remove and set aside.
• Pour beer into the pot and stir to deglaze, scraping up all the browned bits. Return pork loin to the pot. Place bay leaves on top. Pour cannellini beans, then salsa, on top. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 20 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 15 to 20 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Slice pork, cut into chunks, or shred. Serve with the beans.
