Pork and Bean Stew Recipe

Provided By
RecipeTips

A new take on the perennial favorite, pork and beans - only this version is savory rather than the more familiar, molasses-sweetened style. The meat can be from any cut, and could even be trimmings from a loin or roast. Can be multiplied as needed.

Cut pork into bite-size pieces. Salt and pepper lightly.
Heat oil or render ( see TIP) a chunk of pork fat in skillet. Brown pork pieces. Remove meat, add onion to pan and brown slightly.
Add wine and water to pan with oregano and potato. Add browned pork and any accumulated juices. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to maintain a simmer, and cover. Simmer until potatoes and pork are tender, about 20 minutes.
Stir in beans and cook until beans are heated through. Serve hot.
TIP: To render pork fat, cook slowly to melt fat, then remove any remaining solids
