Salt Pork And Potato Stew Food

PORK AND POTATO STEW

Steps:

• In a large skillet heat the oil over medium heat. When the oil is hot enough, add the chopped onion and cook until onion is translucent, do not burn it.
• Chop the pork meat into 1 inch cubes. Add the pork and garlic to the onion. For this stew I used these gorgeous baby yellow potatoes, which I just cleaned really well and peeled, however, you may use any potato you like. Add the potatoes and red pepper to the skillet.
• At this point we just want to cook the meat until it's done, but we do not want to burn the potatoes, so about 10 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes, hot sauce, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper and water to the skillet and stir. Once it's boiling turn down the heat and cover with a lid and let simmer for about 30 to 45 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through.
• Garnish with chopped parsley and sour cream if preferred.

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, cook the salt pork or bacon until crisp.
• Add both types of onions and cook until they start to soften, for about 4 or 5 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the onions, and add the bay leaves and thyme.
• Increase the heat to high. Pour in the wine and stir to loosen any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until the wine has evaporated.
• Add the potatoes, chicken broth, and pepper. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are tender, for 45 to 60 minutes.
• Sprinkle the stew with paprika, if desired. Taste and adjust the seasonings. Remove the bay leaves before serving.
• Garnish with sliced green onions, if you like. Enjoy.
