SLOW-COOKED PEPPERED PORK STEW



Slow-Cooked Peppered Pork Stew image

This is a tasty and easy-to-make pork tenderloin stew. The black pepper and cumin gives a nice edge to counter the softness of the potatoes and tenderized vegetables, I think, without being too spicy. You can also use half-and-half or cream instead of water, and add 1/4 cup flour if you want a creamier broth.

Time 5h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

water as needed
8 carrots, peeled and chopped into 1 1/2-inch chunks
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup

2 teaspoons crushed garlic
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon dried dill weed
salt to taste
1 pound pork tenderloin

Steps:

  • Turn slow cooker to High and add a little water to coat the bottom of the pot. Add carrots and cook until nearly tender, about 1 hour.
  • Add condensed soups to the carrots. Fill 1 emptied can with water and stir in until soup is as thin as a broth. Add celery, potatoes, and onion. Sprinkle in cumin, pepper, basil, garlic, mustard, and dill weed. Stir well and season with salt.

SLOW COOKER PORK CASSEROLE



Slow cooker pork casserole image

Cosy up on cold nights with our comforting slow cooker pork casserole. Chopped apples would make a great addition - add them in the final hour of cooking

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 8h15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tbsp vegetable or rapeseed oil
4 pork shoulder steaks (about 750g), cut into large chunks
1 onion, chopped
1 leek, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
bundle of woody herbs (bouquet garni) - we used 2 bay leaves, 3 sage leaves and 4 thyme sprigs, plus a few thyme leaves to serve
1 chicken stock cube
2 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp cider vinegar
2 tsp cornflour
1 tbsp honey

Steps:

  • Heat your slow cooker. Drizzle the oil in a wide frying pan over a high heat. Season the pork, then add to the hot pan. Avoid overcrowding the meat - you may want to do this in batches. Cook until deep brown all over, then transfer to the slow cooker. Add the onion and leeks to the frying pan and cook for a few mins, until they soften. Add a splash of water and scrape any tasty bits from the bottom, then tip everything into the slow cooker. Add the carrot, herbs, stock cube, mustard and vinegar, season, then add enough water to just cover the ingredients. Stir, then set your slow cooker on low for 6-8 hrs, or high for 5-6 hrs.
  • In a saucepan, mix the cornflour and honey with 1-2 tsp of liquid from the slow cooker, until you have a smooth paste. Add 100ml more liquid, bring to a simmer until thickened, then stir back into the casserole. Serve with mash or dumplings, scattered with thyme leaves.

Tips:

  • Sear the pork cubes in a pan before adding them to the slow cooker. This will help to brown them and give the stew a richer flavor.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your stew. This will add color, flavor, and nutrients.
  • If you want a thicker stew, add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) to the stew about 30 minutes before it is finished cooking. You can add more if you want a thicker consistency.
  • Serve the stew over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles. You can also add a side of bread or salad.

Conclusion:

Pork stew is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover pork. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can easily make a delicious and comforting stew that the whole family will enjoy.
