Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 garlic cloves , 1 crushed, 2 sliced
2 tbsp rapeseed oil
4 tsp smoked paprika
4 lean pork shoulder steaks (525g), trimmed of any fat
2 large onions (340g), halved and sliced
325g carrots (about 6), diced
2 tbsp sherry vinegar
2 red peppers , deseeded and chopped
1 tbsp vegetable bouillon powder , made up to 500ml with boiling water
3 rosemary sprigs , leaves picked and finely chopped
200g whole cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp tomato purée
2 x 400g cans butter beans , drained
⅓ x 30g pack parsley , chopped
squeeze of lemon (optional)

Steps:

  • Mix the crushed garlic, 1 tbsp of the oil and 1 tsp smoked paprika together in a shallow dish and turn the pork steaks over in the mix to coat them on both sides. Heat a large non-stick frying pan and fry the pork for about 4 mins on each side to part-cook and brown them, then remove them from the pan.
  • Add the rest of the oil to the pan and fry the onions, carrots and sliced garlic, stirring frequently for 10 mins until the veg starts to caramelise a little. Pour in the sherry vinegar, allowing it to sizzle in the heat, then add the peppers, bouillon, rosemary, any juices left in the dish from the pork, the cherry tomatoes, tomato purée, remaining 3 tsp paprika and beans.
  • Lay the pork steaks on top, then cover the pan and cook for 20 mins until the pork and vegetables are tender. The pork will be cooked and juicy, but not fall apart. Remove the pork from the pan, stir in the parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice, if using.
  • If you're following our Healthy Diet Plan, eat two portions of the pork and beans now and chill the rest for another day. Will keep for up to two days. To serve the second night, just reheat in a pan.

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of pork: Pork shoulder, also known as pork butt, is the best cut for this dish as it has a good amount of fat that will render out and keep the meat moist during cooking.
  • Brown the pork before cooking: Browning the pork in a skillet over medium-high heat before adding it to the slow cooker will help to develop flavor and color.
  • Use a variety of beans: Using a variety of beans, such as pinto beans, kidney beans, and black beans, will add different flavors and textures to the dish.
  • Add some vegetables: Adding some vegetables, such as diced onions, celery, and carrots, will add sweetness and flavor to the dish.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: Using a flavorful sauce, such as a barbecue sauce or a tomato-based sauce, will help to enhance the flavor of the pork and beans.
  • Cook on low and slow: Cooking the pork and beans on low heat for a long period of time will help to tenderize the meat and allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Serve the pork and beans with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, or diced avocado.
