Method
- Take 500 g of freshly minced pork
- In a heavy based casserole add a few drops of light olive oil (pomace) or vegetable oil
- And heat until just starting to smoke, carefully add the mince and fry for a few minutes stirring frequently until the mince is rich and golden. Next add 300 ml light chicken stock (essential cuisine is my all time favorite if not making your own), a teaspoon of tomato puree and bring to a simmer.
- Thicken slightly with 1 teaspoons of corn flour mixed to a paste with cold water and stirred into the pork mix, place in a oven covered with a lid on 125oc for 45 minutes
- Meanwhile take one large onion, 2 carrots, a 100g of celeriac all finely diced and sweat these in a separate pan till soft and translucent, then add a few fresh thyme leaves, and a bay leaf to the veg.
- Remove the pork casserole dish from the oven, add the vegetable garnish and pop on top of stove and cook gently for another 15 minutes, taste for seasoning adding a little cracked pepper and sea salt to finish.
