Duo of slow-cooked pork

Two pork ingredients, smoked sausage and a shoulder joint here, are left to cook slowly on a bed of vegetables and herbs, moistened with a vegetable or poultry stock.

This is one of those crafty dishes that can be reheated over and over, getting better each time.

Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 10 min.

Prepare 500 ml white haricot beans.

If you are using fresh beans, boil them for 10 minutes in salted water.

For dried beans, leave them to soak overnight in cold water.

Stage 2 - 30 min.

Prepare 300 ml carrot and cut into chunks of about 1/2 an inch 91 cm).

Do the same for 300 ml turnip and 300 ml potimarron (Japanese chestnut pumpkin).

Put all these vegetables into a large casserole.

Stage 3 - 1 min.

Add the beans.

Set aside.

Stage 4 - 1 min.

Salt and pepper the 500 ml pork meat all over (a nice bit of shoulder here).

Stage 5 - 5 min.

Pour 2 tablespoons oil into a frying pan on high heat. When really hot, add the meat and suasage (smoked if possible).

Brown rapidly on all sides.

Stage 6 - 1 min.

Sit the meat on top of the vegetables.

Stage 7 - 1 min.

Prick the sausage.

Stage 8 - 4 hours

Add 2 cloves garlic, 2 bayleaves, 5 leaves sage and pour 1 litre 500 ml Vegetable stock over. The level of the stock should cover all the vegetables.

Put on the lid and cook in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for at least 4 hours.

Stage 9

After this time the meat should be "confite" (can be shredded with a fork) and the vegetables deliciously flavoured with a melting texture.

Serve directly on the table so that everyone can help themselves.

Remarks

The 4 hours cooking time is only a guide. Feel free to make it longer if you like, but then reduce the temperature to 270°F (130°C).

If you don't have vegetable stock, a chicken stock cube will work just fine.

And to drink?

A full-bodied red wine, from the Languedoc, for example.

Keeping

Several days in the fridge.
