Indulge in the comforting flavors of autumn with this rich and hearty pork stew, lovingly crafted with the finest seasonal ingredients. Pork shoulder, known for its tender and flavorful qualities, takes center stage in this dish, braised to perfection in a delectable blend of spices and herbs.

Accompanying the succulent pork are an array of autumnal vegetables, each contributing their unique flavors and textures to create a symphony of tastes. Sweet potatoes lend a touch of natural sweetness, while carrots and celery add a contrasting crunch. A medley of aromatic mushrooms, such as cremini and shiitake, imparts an earthy depth of flavor, while crisp green beans bring a vibrant freshness to the stew.

The secret to this stew's rich and complex flavor lies in the use of a variety of liquids. Beer, with its hoppy bitterness, deglazes the pan, creating a flavorful base for the stew. Apple cider, with its sweet and tart notes, adds a touch of acidity that brightens the dish. Beef broth provides a rich and savory foundation, while a splash of Worcestershire sauce adds a hint of umami.

Garnished with fresh parsley and served alongside crusty bread or mashed potatoes, this autumn pork stew is a culinary masterpiece that will warm your soul and tantalize your taste buds. It's a perfect dish for a cozy fall evening, enjoyed with loved ones around the table.

PORK AND BEER STEW (GERMAN)



Pork and Beer Stew (German) image

*Schweinefleisch und Bier-Eintopf* in German, this recipe is from *Modern German Food* by Roz Denny. Roz said "In several parts of Germany, breadcrumbs are used to thicken soups & stews, a brilliant idea that adds a delicious rich & slightly nutty flavour, esp when beer is used instead of stock. This recipe uses shoulder of pork, but works equally well w/beef or veal & is a wonderful warming casserole." *Enjoy* ! (15 min was allowed for ingredient prep)

Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 tbsp rapeseed oil
2 onions , halved and sliced
3 celery sticks , thickly sliced
2 bay leaves
1 tbsp picked thyme leaves
500g lean pork fillet , cut into large chunks
2 tsp English mustard powder
4 large garlic cloves , grated
2 tbsp spelt flour
4 tbsp cider vinegar
800ml bouillon or chicken stock
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and cut into chunks
2 leeks , thickly sliced
4 carrots , cut into chunks
140g spelt flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp English mustard powder
2 tbsp finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 tbsp picked thyme leaves , plus a few sprigs to garnish
2 tbsp bio yogurt
2 tbsp rapeseed oil

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a flameproof and ovenproof dish. Add the onions, celery, bay and thyme, and fry for about 8 mins until softened. Add the pork and cook for a few mins until it changes colour, but it doesn't need to brown as you don't want to overcook it.
  • Stir in the mustard powder, garlic, flour and vinegar, then pour in the bouillon, stirring to prevent any lumps forming.
  • Add the apple, leeks and carrots, bring the liquid to the boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover the pan and simmer for 1 hr, stirring occasionally, until the pork and vegetables are tender.
  • When the stew is nearly cooked, heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. To make the dumplings, tip the flour, baking powder, mustard powder, parsley and thyme into a bowl and stir to combine. Put the yogurt in a jug, make up to 100ml with water, then stir in the oil. Lightly stir the liquid into the flour to make a soft, slightly sticky dough. Divide the dough equally into eight and shape into balls. Drop them on top of the stew, drizzling each one with the remaining oil. Bake for 20 mins until the dumplings are golden. Scatter with the extra thyme, if you like, before serving.

CHEF JOHN'S IRISH PORK STEW



Chef John's Irish Pork Stew image

I'm sure you've heard by now that corned beef and cabbage is not authentic St. Patrick's Day food. I decided to do a little mash-up and this Irish pork stew with baby cabbage was the result. By the way, baby cabbage can be a little hard to find, but you can use Brussels sprouts, and no one will know the difference, mostly because there isn't one.

Time 2h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 (2 1/2 pound) boneless pork shoulder, cut into 2-inch cubes
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 bay leaf
¾ teaspoon caraway seed
1 (12 fluid ounce) bottle dark beer (such as Guinness®)
2 cups chicken broth
3 carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 stalks celery, cut into 1-inch pieces
¼ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
12 Brussels sprouts, halved
3 cups mashed potatoes, or as needed
1 teaspoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, or to taste

Steps:

  • Season pork cubes with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a pot over high heat. Working in batches, cook and stir pork in hot oil until browned on all sides, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer pork to a bowl and reduce heat to medium.
  • Melt butter in the pot. Cook and stir onion with a pinch of salt in hot butter until onion is softened and translucent, 7 to 10 minutes. Add garlic; saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Stir flour into onion mixture; cook and stir until flour is completely incorporated, about 2 minutes. Add bay leaf and caraway seed; cook for 2 minutes more. Pour beer into onion mixture. Cook and stir until thickened, 1 to 3 minutes.
  • Stir pork, chicken broth, carrots, and celery into beer mixture; bring to simmer. Stir 1/4 cup parsley and balsamic vinegar into stew, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until pork is fork-tender, about 2 hours.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook uncovered until almost tender, about 5 minutes. Drain.
  • Stir Brussels sprouts into stew and simmer until heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Divide mashed potatoes between 6 bowls. Ladle stew over potatoes and top each with a pinch of parsley.

Tips:

  • Use a Dutch oven or other heavy-bottomed pot for even heat distribution and to prevent scorching.
  • Brown the pork in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot and to ensure even browning.
  • Deglaze the pot with beer between steps to add flavor and prevent sticking.
  • Use a variety of vegetables for a more flavorful and colorful stew.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of beer. A dark beer will give the stew a richer flavor, while a lighter beer will result in a more delicate flavor.
  • Serve the stew with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or egg noodles.

Conclusion:

This hearty and flavorful pork stew is perfect for a cold autumn day. The combination of pork, vegetables, and beer creates a rich and satisfying dish that is sure to please everyone at the table.
