CREOLE PORK STEW



Creole Pork Stew image

This is a recipe I found on the internet and it was different than my usual method of making stew. I never used tomato paste, worcestershire sauce, sage, oregano or bay leaves in any of my stews so I decided to try this one out. Well, let me tell you no one could have been more pleased than I was after tasting this. This will be the recipe I use from now on when I make pork stew. Be sure not to leave your roux unattended - it must be stirred constantly so it doesn't burn. If you see black flecks it's burnt and the only thing you can do is throw it out and start over or it will have a very bitter taste. If you have trouble with burning you might want to lower your fire a bit and cook it over lower heat. If you're not familiar with andouille it is a very highly smoked and seasoned sausage that adds a tremendous amount of flavor. In fact, I was amazed at the difference in the taste of the gravy after I added the pork and andouille. If you do use andouille be careful not to add too much or it will overpower your dish. One link or 1/3 lb was plenty for this dish. You can use any type of pork - I had some boneless pork chops in the freezer so I just cubed those. I would recommend using a lean cut of pork as you don't want your stew to be too greasy. When pork loins (not tenderloins) go on sale this would be the perfect opportunity to make this dish. Naturally, living in South Louisiana, we serve this over rice and a big scoop of potato salad on the side finishes it off perfectly.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: Pork shoulder or pork butt are the best cuts for stewing. They are tough cuts, but they become tender and flavorful when cooked slowly in a liquid.
  • Brown the pork before stewing: Browning the pork before stewing helps to develop flavor and color. You can brown the pork in a skillet over medium heat or in the pot you will be using to stew it.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, texture, and color to pork stew. Some good vegetables to use include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and green beans.
  • Use a flavorful liquid: The liquid you use to stew the pork is important for flavor. You can use water, broth, or a combination of both. If you are using water, you can add some herbs or spices to flavor it.
  • Simmer the stew low and slow: Pork stew should be simmered low and slow for at least 1 hour, or until the pork is tender. Do not boil the stew, as this will make the meat tough.
  • Season the stew to taste: Once the stew is cooked, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and other herbs or spices. You can also add a bit of thickening agent, such as flour or cornstarch, to thicken the stew.
  • Serve the stew with your favorite sides: Pork stew is a hearty and flavorful dish that can be served with a variety of sides. Some good sides for pork stew include mashed potatoes, rice, pasta, or crusty bread.

Conclusion:

Creole-style pork stew is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a pork stew that your family and friends will love.
