Categories     main-dish

Time 1h13m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 tablespoons butter
2 carrots, chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
1 onion, chopped
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon tomato paste
32 ounces vegetable broth
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 large white potato, cubed
1/2 (10-ounce) box frozen corn
1/2 (10-ounce) box frozen peas
5 ounces fresh green beans, cut into bite size pieces
2 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley leaves
Peanut oil, to fry
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon seasoning salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 (1-inch thick) bone-in center cut pork chops

Steps:

  • In a large pot over medium heat, melt butter and saute carrots, celery and onion until softened, about 6 minutes. Add the flour to the vegetables and blend well. Cook the flour until it achieves a slight blonde color. Next, stir in the tomato paste and allow to slightly cook, about 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in vegetable broth while stirring and bring soup to a boil. Reduce heat and add the can of diced tomatoes and the potatoes. Simmer until potatoes are cooked through, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the peanut oil in an electric fryer or large pan fitted with deep-fry thermometer to 325 degrees F. In a large casserole dish, mix together flour, and season with salt and pepper. Dredge chops in flour mixture, patting excess off. Place chops, 2 at time, in fryer and cook until cooked through, about 6 minutes. Cool slightly and remove to a paper towel lined sheet tray.
  • Add the cooked chops to soup and simmer another 30 minutes, or until the meat falls off the bone. During the last 10 minutes of cooking, add the corn, peas, and green beans. Ladle soup into individual bowls, top with a pork chop and sprinkle with parsley.

PORK CHOP AND CABBAGE SOUP



Pork Chop and Cabbage Soup image

This is a quick and nutritious recipe I created, or think I did, which my companion and I enjoy. Naturally, you may adjust any ingredients as you wish. I had to approximate the ketchup as I didn't want that to overwhelm this recipe. Due to my being a Southerner, I cook corn bread with this. I prefer pure olive oil to extra-virgin as it's not as fruity. Any oil will do.

PORK CHOP SUEY SOUP



Pork Chop Suey Soup image

This full flavored soup was a hit with my family and at a potluck I recently attended. Full of flavor, veggies and warmth. I enjoy that it is a semi-homemade recipe and anything goes. Add canned baby corn, bok choy, napa or regular cabbage, shitake mushrooms to make this more authentic to the Chinese soups served at...

Time 4h20m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 lb pork roast, loin end (could use chicken or beef)
1 medium onion, sliced
2 stalk(s) celery
2 stalk(s) carrots, shredded
4 green onions
1 can(s) mushrooms, slices
1 can(s) green beans french cut
1 can(s) bamboo shoots, chopped
1 can(s) water chestnuts, chopped
1 Tbsp chicken base
1 1/2 Tbsp garlic and herb seasoning
1 box chicken stock, no salt
1 bottle soy sauce
2 pkg ramen noodles (chicken & oriental flavored)
1 pkg chow mein noodles
1 Tbsp garlic chili paste *optional but well worth it*

Steps:

  • 1. Shake about 1 1/2 tablespoon of soy sauce along with the garlic & herb seasoning blend over the pork roast then marinade for 30 minutes or an hour in refrigerator.
  • 2. Meanwhile slice all raw vegetables into 1/2 inch pieces so they are bite size (similar to Chinese style stir fry) and add to the slow cooker reserving 1T green onion for garnish. Add canned green beans, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots etc.
  • 3. Heat large skillet on stove top and add 2 T canola or sesame oil then sear marinated pork roast on all sides. This takes 3-5 minutes each side to begin browning each side. Nestle roast into veggies in slow cooker.
  • 4. Add chicken stock, chicken base, both ramen seasoning packets an additional 2 tablespoons of soy sauce & garlic chili paste to slow cooker and place lid on. Cook on low 4-6 hours.
  • 5. 30 minutes before serving remove roast and slice into bite size pieces and add back into slow cooker. Break up ramen noodles and add them to the slow cooker, cover and let cook for an additional 30 minutes to cook noodles through. Serve garnished with additional soy sauce if you like, chow mein noodles and green onions.

Tips:

  • To get the best flavor, use bone-in pork chops. The bones add extra flavor to the soup.
  • Season the pork chops generously with salt and pepper before browning them. This will help to develop the flavor of the chops.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot when browning the pork chops. If you do, the chops will not brown evenly and will be more likely to stick to the pot.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your soup. This will add flavor and texture to the dish.
  • Add a bay leaf or two to the soup for extra flavor.
  • Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the pork chops are cooked through.
  • Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt and a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
