Pork And Potato Stew Recipes

PORK STEW

Steps:

• Cut pork into 1-inch chunks (or a little larger).
• Heat a large soup pot or dutch oven on the stove over medium-high heat. Melt 1 tablespoon each oil and butter. Add pork, onions and celery and brown for several minutes on all sides; pork does not have to be cooked all the way through.
• Add garlic, dried thyme, rosemary and bay leaves and cook for about a minute, then add broth and tomatoes (with the juice). Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for about an hour or until pork is tender.
• Add potatoes, carrots, and green beans to the stew and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low again and cover. Simmer for an additional 15-20 minutes or until vegetables are tender and broth is slightly thickened.
• To thicken the stew: In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water or broth with a fork until smooth. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and simmer, uncovered, for 5-10 minutes or until thickened. Stir in fresh minced parsley.

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.

30-MINUTE SPICY PORK AND SWEET POTATO STEW

Steps:

• Puree the tomatoes, onions, garlic, chipotle and adobo sauce in a food processor until completely smooth.
• Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat until nearly smoking. Add the pork in a single layer, season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, undisturbed, until beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Turn the pieces and cook until brown, about 1 minute more. Dust the meat with the chili powder, and add the tomato puree, sweet potatoes, chicken broth, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium, cover and gently simmer until the meat is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare the toppings: Chop the jalapenos, and whisk together with the yogurt in a small bowl. Shred the cabbage, cut the avocado into chunks and cut the lime into wedges.
• Ladle the stew into large, deep bowls. Top with the yogurt mixture, garnish with the cabbage, avocado, lime and cilantro and serve with the tortillas.

PORK SWEET POTATO STEW

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a large casserole dish or Dutch oven with cooking spray.
• Combine brown sugar and flour in a bowl. Place Dijon mustard in a separate bowl. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Coat pork cubes with Dijon mustard and toss in brown sugar mixture to coat. Brown coated pork cubes on all sides in hot olive oil, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer browned pork into prepared casserole dish, leaving oil in skillet.
• Cook and stir onion and garlic in the hot skillet until onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Stir chicken broth, sherry, sweet potato cubes, black pepper, rosemary, thyme, and salt into onion; bring to a boil. Pour sweet potato mixture over pork and cover casserole dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes; uncover and bake until pork is no longer pink inside and sweet potato cubes are tender, about 20 more minutes.
