Try this recipe and I'm sure it's going to be a sure hit on the dinner table (your kids will love it too!).


Slow cooked PORK with BEANS and VEGGIES

Ingredients:

2 TBSP vegetable oil

1 Medium sized Onion chopped

4 cloves of Garlic chopped

½ Kilo Pork meat cut into ½ inch cubes

2 TBSP light soy sauce

1 TBSP Oyster Sauce

4 Cups Water or beef broth

1 large potato peeled and cut into ½ inch cubes

2 med sized carrots peeled and cut into ½ inch cubes

1 Medium sized cabbage chopped

1 med sized red or green bell pepper

1 Finger chili siling haba (optional)

1 250g Hunt’s Pork and Beans (I don’t like the texture of dried white beans)

1 TBSP tomato paste

1 tsp sugar

Salt and Pepper

Procedure:

• -          In medium heat sauté onions and garlic in oil add pork and cook for 3 minutes.

• -          Add soy sauce and oyster sauce, cook for another 3 minutes.

• -          Add water or beef broth cook for 30 minutes

• -          Add carrots and potatoes cook for 1 hour (I want the meat really tender and veggies to be really soft) you can reduce the cooking time if you still want the crunch in your veggies.

• -          Add the cabbage and Hunt’s pork and beans and cook for another 10 minutes

• -          Add tomato paste, sugar, salt and pepper

• -          Add the bell pepper and chilli last (so it doesn’t lose its aroma)

Serve hot with rice.
