Recipes for Pork pieces

I need some inspiration

Casserole of pork & Kumera

Peel & chop kumera into pieces.
Brown pork and add 1 chopped onion and soften.
Add 1 cup chicken stock, juice of one orange & 1 tsp ginger and kumera.
Cook until kumera soft - approx 35-45 mins at 175 or on stove top pan.

Another variation on this is to add 2 T greek yoghurt (with one tsp cornflour) just before serving to the dish - very yummy too.

Hasty cook's pork casserole
This is for two people - alter quantities to suit your number. 400g diced pork, 1 large onion, 1 tin Wattie's Italian tomatoes, 2 slices bread. Toss meat in seasoned flour, and brown with onions in a little oil or butter. Transfer to casserole dish and add 1 tin Italian (or other flavour) tomatoes and a splash of red wine if you like. Blitz the bread to make fresh breadcrumbs and place over the top. Cook as for a casserole, without a lid. This can be slung together really fast and gives impressive results for low effort.

I use the slow cook pork from the Supermarket for this, any bacon.
Fry up onion in a pan, and bit of garlic add cut up bacon and cook till nice and brown/crispy. Put aside in an oven proof dish. Add pork pieces to pan and cook till brown. Once brown add to dish with bacon etc. Make up a couple of cups of strong beef stock, or any maggi cook in pot sachet you like, i l ike the Beef Bourginon. put in some herbs, any you like, oregano, thyme etc. Put stock in pan and swish it around, get all the browning & meat bits from cooking. Then put over bacon and pork to just cover. You can add some mushrooms and maybe tomato in at this stage if desired. Cook for at least 2 hours on 180c, comes out really yummy and the pork falls apart.

I do a nice one in the oven
I baste the pork pieces with honey and soya sauce, add a little liquid - water - then add whatever vege's you like including onion, capsicans, celery and mushrooms, crushed garlic and ginger - if you like - cover with tin foil and bake 150 deg cel till tender. thicken the liquid if necessary and just add a little more water through the cooking if it drys out to much. really yummy with savory rice! cashew nuts is sooooo nice as well with this!

really nice bakes
place in a cassarole dish with: pour over small can of either pinapple crushed or pieces, soya, worshire, hoising sauce, crushed garlic and ginger. then i add sliced onion, capsican, mushroom, and whatever other vege's you want to chuck in. then cover and bake for about 1 and 1/2 hours on 150deg cel. really nice and tender! enjoy!
