Roast Pork Hotpot

This recipe was taken from the Sainsbury's recipe cards in the "Make the most of your Roast" series.

We had a bit of left over pork from Sunday's dinner so I decided to have a rummage around the hundreds of recipe cards I pick up in Sainsbury's and rarely use. This feeds about 4 people if you team it up with some veg or served with a big chunk of bread it makes a great supper.

Ingredients

Left over roast pork.
2 onions (sliced)
2 cloves of garlic
2 carrots (cut into thick batons)
2 courgettes (cut into thick batons)
2 large potatoes (thickly sliced)
1 tablespoon tomato puree
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
300ml vegetable stock
1 tablespoon plain flour
salt & pepper

Method

1. Pre heat the oven to 190 degrees C/ gas mark 5.




2. Fry onion and garlic until soft and add the pork. Mix well




3. Add the stock, tomato puree, worcestershire sauce, flour, salt and pepper. Mix well




4. Add the carrots and courgettes and simmer for 5 minutes.




5. Blanch the sliced potatoes for 3 minutes.




6. Transfer the mixture to an oven proof 2L dish. Drain the potatoes and lay on the top of the mixture to cover.




7. Bake for 1 1/2 hours.

Variations

1. At step 4 add some chopped apple, apple goes really well with pork.




2. Use Sweet Potatoes to cover the mixture.




3. Add some french mustard at step 3 for a bit of spice.

Happy cooking!
