CREAMY PORK AND APPLE CASSEROLE WITH CIDER



Creamy Pork and Apple Casserole with Cider image

Slow-cooked pork with cider and apples, finished with a splash of cream. A comforting casserole that uses inexpensive pork shoulder steaks.

Provided by Nicky Corbishley

Categories     Dinner

Time 2h25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tbsp olive oil
500 g (1.1lbs) pork shoulder steaks (chopped into large chunks)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 medium onion (peeled and diced)
12 button mushrooms (sliced in half)
2 cloves of garlic (peeled and minced)
2 tbsp plain (all purpose) flour
240 ml (1 cup) dry cider
420 ml (1 3/4 cups) chicken stock
1/2 tsp dried sage ((or 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh sage))
2 crisp dessert apples
80 ml (1/3 cup) double (heavy) cream
6 fresh sage leaves ((optional))
1 apple (cored and thinly sliced)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 170c/325f.
  • Add the 2 tbsp of oil to a large casserole pan and heat over a medium-high heat.
  • Add the chunks of pork and sprinkle over the 1/2 tsp each of salt and pepper. Brown the pork on both sides - this should take about 5-6 minutes altogether.
  • Turn the heat down to medium and add in the diced onion and 12 button mushrooms that have been sliced in half. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens.
  • Add in the 2 cloves of minced garlic and cook for a further minute.
  • Sprinkle over the 2 tbsps of flour and stir it all in to coat the meat, onion and mushrooms.
  • Pour in the 240ml (1 cup) of cider and the 420ml (1 3/4 cups) of chicken stock. Add in the 1/2 tsp of dried sage.
  • Turn up the heat and bring to the boil, scraping up any bits that might have stuck to the bottom of the pan.
  • Place a lid on the dish and place in the oven for 90 minutes. Check a couple of times towards the end of cooking and add a splash of water or stock if it's starting to look a little dry.
  • Remove the casserole from the oven and add in the sliced apples and the 80ml (1/3 cup) of cream.
  • Stir together, place the lid back on the dish and place back in the oven for 25 minutes - until the apples are tender.
  • Remove from the oven and serve. I like to top mine with a few fresh sage leaves and some very thinly sliced apple for a bit of crunch. I love to serve this dish with mashed potatoes, cabbage and roasted radishes.

NORMANDY PORK WITH APPLES & CIDER



Normandy pork with apples & cider image

True comfort food for chilly winter evenings, this slow-cooker recipe combines meltingly tender pork, smoked bacon and cider

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 8h50m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tbsp rapeseed oil or olive oil
600g pork shoulder or pork cheeks, fat and sinew trimmed, cut into chunky pieces
1 large onion, chopped
2 carrots, cut into chunky pieces
2 celery sticks, cut into chunky pieces
200g pack smoked bacon lardons
250ml dry cider (or use 100ml apple juice mixed with 3 tbsp cider vinegar and 100ml water)
2 eating apples (we used Braeburn), cored and cut into chunky pieces
1 chicken stock cube
1 bay leaf
3-4 thyme sprigs, plus extra to serve (optional)
140g crème fraîche
1-2 tbsp Dijon mustard, plus extra to serve (optional)
1-2 tsp cornflour, optional
mashed potato and greens, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat half the oil in a large pan and brown the meat in batches. Don't overcrowd the pan, and only turn the meat when it has a deep brown crust on the underside, as this will add lots of flavour to the stew. When one batch is cooked, tip it into the slow cooker and continue with the next batch, adding more oil as you need it.
  • When all the meat has been transferred to the slow cooker, add the onion, carrots and celery to the pan and cook for 5-10 mins to just soften, scraping any meaty bits up from the bottom of the pan. Tip the veg into the slow cooker. Add the lardons to the pan and fry until crispy. Pour in the cider, bubble for 1 min, again scraping the bottom of the pan, then tip the cider and lardons into the slow cooker too. Add the apples, stock cube and herbs to the slow cooker, pour in 400ml water, season well and turn the heat to Low. Cover with the lid and cook for 6-8 hrs until the meat is very tender. (If you don't have a slow cooker, tip all the ingredients back into the pan, cover with a lid and cook for 3 hrs over a low heat, stirring every now and then to prevent it from catching on the bottom. You may have to add a splash of water during cooking if the sauce looks dry.)
  • Turn your slow cooker up to High. Add the crème fraîche and mustard to the stew and check the seasoning. If the sauce is thin, you can thicken it with the cornflour - ladle 2 spoonfuls of the sauce into a pan and bring to a simmer, mix the cornflour with 1-2 tsp cold water to make a paste, then stir it into the sauce. Once thickened, return the sauce to the slow cooker and cook for 10 mins more on High, stirring occasionally (or for 5 mins on the hob). Serve with mashed potato, greens and extra mustard and thyme, if you like.

SLOW-COOKED PORK, CIDER & SAGE HOTPOT



Slow-cooked pork, cider & sage hotpot image

Warm up as the cold nights set in with this glorious hotpot, with slow-cooked pork cooked in cider and sage. It's topped with a crispy layer of potatoes

Provided by Anna Glover

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 3h40m

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 tbsp olive oil, plus a little extra
1kg diced pork shoulder
20g butter, cubed, plus a little extra
4 leeks, trimmed and thickly sliced
4 garlic cloves, crushed
3 tbsp plain flour
500ml dry cider
400ml chicken stock
2 bay leaves
½ small bunch parsley, finely chopped
small bunch sage, leaves picked, 5 left whole, the rest chopped
200ml single cream
400g Maris Piper or King Edward potatoes
400g sweet potatoes

Steps:

  • Heat half of the oil in a deep ovenproof frying pan, or flameproof casserole dish, and fry the pork pieces over a medium high heat in batches until seared all over, then transfer to a plate. Add another 1 tbsp oil to the pan, if you need to, while you're cooking the batches. Once all the pork is seared, transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Add another 1 tbsp oil to the pan with a little butter and fry half the leeks with a pinch of salt for 10 mins until tender. Add the garlic, fry for a minute, then stir in the flour.
  • Pour in the cider, a little at a time, stirring to pick up any bits stuck to the bottom of the pan and to combine everything. Add the stock, bay leaves and seared pork, then simmer, half-covered with a lid for 1-1½ hrs until the meat is just tender (it will later cook to the point of falling apart in the oven). Can be prepared a day ahead.
  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Simmer uncovered for a few minutes to reduce the sauce, if you need to - it shouldn't be too liquid or the potatoes will sink into the sauce. Stir in the parsley, chopped sage, remaining leeks, and the cream, then season well.
  • Peel both types of potatoes and cut into slices 2mm thick, by hand or using a mandoline. Alternate layers of potato and sweet potato in circles over the pie, or randomly, if you prefer. Dot the cubed butter over the top and bake for 1-1½ hrs until the potato is tender. Nestle in the whole sage leaves, brushed in a little oil, for the last 10 mins. Leave to rest for 10 mins before serving.

This comforting dish features an array of autumn ingredients-apples, fennel, and sweet potatoes-roasted in the oven to caramelize lightly and bring their sugars to the forefront. The sauce, which mingles apple cider with the meaty browned bits in the skillet, is sharpened with a bit of Dijon mustard to balance the sweetness.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

Pork
4 boneless pork loin chops (each about 7 ounces and 1 inch thick)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup apple cider or apple juice
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 2 pieces
Vegetables and Apples
1 pound red-skinned sweet potatoes (yams), peeled and cut lengthwise in half, then cut crosswise into 2-inch pieces
2 Pink Lady or Fuji apples, cored and cut lengthwise into eighths
1 large fennel bulb, trimmed and cut lengthwise into eighths
2 sprigs of fresh rosemary, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Remove the pork from the refrigerator and let stand at room temperature while the oven preheats. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place a large rimmed baking sheet in the oven and heat until very hot.
  • 2. To cook the vegetables and apples: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes, apples, fennel, and rosemary with the olive oil to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and spread the vegetables and apples on it. Roast, turning the ingredients over halfway through, for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are nicely browned and tender.
  • 3. Meanwhile, cook the pork: Season the pork with salt and pepper. Heat a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, then add the chops to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and barely pink when pierced in the center with the tip of a small sharp knife. Transfer to a platter (reserving the oil in the skillet) and let stand for 5 minutes.
  • 4. Pour off all but 1 teaspoon of the oil from the skillet, leaving the brown bits in the pan. Return the pan to medium-low heat, add the apple cider, and bring to a simmer, scraping up the brown bits with a wooden spoon. Whisk in the mustard and simmer for about 2 minutes to reduce the liquid slightly. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter to lightly thicken the sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • 5. Divide the sweet potato mixture among four dinner plates. Place a pork chop alongside the vegetables on each plate. Drizzle with the pan sauce and serve.

Tips:

  • Sear the pork in a hot pan to create a flavorful crust.
  • Use a variety of vegetables to add color and flavor to the dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the vegetables. This will prevent them from steaming instead of frying.
  • Use a good quality cider. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of the dish.
  • Let the pork rest before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute and keep the meat moist.

Conclusion:

Devon pork and cider is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold night. The combination of tender pork, crisp vegetables, and rich cider sauce is sure to please everyone at the table. This dish is also relatively easy to make, making it a great option for busy weeknights. So next time you're looking for a comforting and delicious meal, give Devon pork and cider a try.
