Time 1h35m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 tablespoons avocado oil, divided, or as needed
4 cups shredded cooked pork
1 medium onion, chopped
3 tablespoons frozen 100% orange juice concentrate
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder, or to taste
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 cups salsa verde
1 cup sour cream
10 (6 inch) corn tortillas
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add shredded pork, chopped onion, orange juice concentrate, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until onion is tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove lid, increase heat to medium, and continue to cook until the liquid is mostly evaporated, about 10 minutes. Transfer everything to a plate and allow to cool slightly. Wipe the skillet clean with paper towels.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Combine salsa verde and sour cream in a mixing bowl, stirring well. Spread about 1 cup of salsa verde mixture over the bottom of the prepared baking dish, reserving the rest.
  • Add remaining cooking oil to the cleaned skillet and heat over medium-high heat.
  • Gently warm each tortilla in the oil, about 2 minutes per side, making the tortillas flexible. Add more oil, if needed.
  • Place a tortilla on a work surface and add 3 tablespoons of pork mixture and 1 tablespoon shredded cheese. Roll the tortilla gently around the filling, and place seam side down in the prepared dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
  • When all tortillas are rolled up and in the dish, pour the reserved salsa-sour cream mixture over the filled tortillas.
  • Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven; sprinkle on remaining cheese and allow to melt while the enchiladas cool, about 5 minutes.

Time 4h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 pound boneless country-style pork ribs, cut into 1-inch chunks
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cups chopped onions
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 ½ pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 quarts water
2 teaspoons beef bouillon granules
4 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 ½ tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
½ teaspoon dried thyme
2 bay leaves
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour, sifted
¼ cup yellow cornmeal
2 teaspoons white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon dried sage, crumbled
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable shortening
½ cup milk, or as needed

Steps:

  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Arrange pork pieces one layer deep in a large baking pan. Broil, stirring often, until meat is browned, about 10 minutes. Pour off and discard the fat.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a Dutch oven or large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions; cook and stir until the onions have softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant but not brown, 2 minutes more.
  • Stir in potatoes and cook for 5 minutes. Pour in water, beef bouillon, sliced carrots, chili powder, marjoram, 1/2 teaspoon thyme, bay leaves, nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and cover. Simmer until the meat and all of the vegetables are tender, about 3 hours.
  • To make the Sage-Cornmeal Dumplings: combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, sage, 1/4 teaspoon thyme, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Add milk all at once, stirring just until the mixture holds together.
  • When the stew is ready, remove the bay leaves. Bring the stew to a gentle boil over medium-low heat. Drop the dumplings by rounded spoonfuls evenly over the surface. Cover the pot and boil for 12 minutes, until the dumplings are cooked through. Ladle the dumplings into soup bowls and top with lots of stew.

Brazilian pork stew with corn dumplings image

Try this simple one-pot take on the traditional Brazilian Feijoada, using pork shoulder - throw in leftover chorizo, ham or bacon

Provided by Sarah Cook

Categories     Main course

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 27

900g pork shoulder , cut into 4cm chunks
2 tbsp sunflower oil
2 onions , finely chopped
2 celery sticks, finely chopped
3 bay leaves
1 tbsp oregano leaves (or 2 tsp dried), plus extra, to serve
1 tbsp ground cumin
1 tbsp ground coriander
1 tbsp allspice
1 stock cube (beef, pork or chicken)
2 x 400g cans chopped tomatoes
1 tbsp cocoa powder
2 tbsp soft dark brown or muscovado sugar
3 tbsp red wine vinegar
zest and juice 2 oranges
2 red chillies , halved lengthways - seeds in or out, depending on whether you like it spicy
bunch spring onions , finely sliced
400g sweet potatoes , peeled and cut into 3-4cm/1.25in - 1.5in chunks
2 red peppers , deseeded and cut into chunks
2 x 400g cans black beans , drained and rinsed
100g cold butter , diced
200g self-raising flour
140g cornmeal or finely ground polenta, plus extra for dusting
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
140g sweetcorn , from a can, drained, or freshly cut from a cob (just boil for 3 mins first)
75ml buttermilk
1 medium egg , beaten

Steps:

  • Start by getting your biggest flameproof casserole dish and sealing the pork chunks in the oil - they don't have to be very well browned. Do in batches, then transfer to a plate and tip three-quarters of the onions, the celery, bay and oregano into the dish. Add a splash more oil, if you need, and fry gently until softened.
  • Tip in the spices, stir for 1 min to toast, then return the pork to the dish. Crumble in the stock cube and stir in the tomatoes, cocoa, sugar, 2 tbsp of the vinegar, the zest and juice from 1 orange, and 3 of the chilli halves. Bring to a simmer, then cover and leave to bubble for 1 hr.
  • Meanwhile, finely chop the reserved chilli half and mix with the remaining onions, the spring onions, and red wine vinegar and the zest and juice from the last orange. Keep cold in the fridge.
  • After 1 hr, stir the sweet potatoes and red peppers into the stew, then re-cover and simmer for another 30 mins.
  • When the stew has about 15 mins to go, make the dumplings. Rub the butter into the flour until it resembles fine crumbs, then stir in the cornmeal, bicarb and sweetcorn. Finally, mix in the buttermilk and all but 1 tbsp of the egg to make a soft dough. Season with some salt and roll the mixture into 12 soft dumplings, then roll in a little more cornmeal to coat the tops. Brush the tops with the reserved beaten egg.
  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Stir the beans into the stew, then taste for seasoning. Sit 6 of the dumplings on top of the stew and the rest on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. Put both in the oven - the stew without its lid - and cook for 25 mins until the dumplings are golden and risen.
  • Carry the stew straight to the table, and sprinkle over a little more oregano before spooning into bowls. Serve the extra dumplings alongside for those who fancy another one, and the onion relish.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: A well-marbled cut of pork, such as pork shoulder or pork butt, will yield the most tender and flavorful stew.
  • Brown the pork before stewing: Browning the pork in a hot skillet before adding it to the stew will help to develop its flavor and prevent it from becoming dry.
  • Use a flavorful braising liquid: The braising liquid for your pork stew should be flavorful and aromatic. A good starting point is a combination of beef broth, chicken broth, and red wine.
  • Add vegetables and herbs: Vegetables and herbs will add flavor and texture to your pork stew. Common additions include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, thyme, and rosemary.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 2 hours: The longer you simmer the stew, the more tender the pork will become. Aim for a simmering time of at least 2 hours.
  • Serve with cornbread dumplings: Cornbread dumplings are a classic accompaniment to pork stew. They're easy to make and add a delicious, hearty touch to the dish.

Conclusion:

Pork stew with cornbread dumplings is a classic comfort food that's perfect for a cold winter night. With its tender pork, flavorful braising liquid, and fluffy cornbread dumplings, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
