1 cup frozen peas

3 bay leaves

Chopped fresh parsley

步骤

coat with flour

Place pork chunks into a large bowl and sprinkle with flour, salt, and black pepper. Use kitchen tongs to toss and coat evenly.

brown the meat

Place a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of oil. Once the oil is hot, add the meat in one layer, working in batches if needed. Brown on all sides for about 5 minutes per batch. Once done cooking, transfer it to the slow cooker.

deglaze

Add the wine to the skillet to deglaze it, scrape the bits from the bottom, and add the liquid to the slow cooker.

make the sauce

Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add the onion and garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add 1 cup of broth to deglaze the skillet, using a wooden spoon to scrape the bits that are stuck to it. Transfer the mixture to the slow cooker on top of the meat and add tomato paste.

add veggies

Add carrots, celery, potatoes, and frozen peas to the slow cooker.

add beef broth

Pour the remaining beef broth on top. Add bay leaves and season with salt and pepper.

cook

Cover and cook on LOW for 7-8 hours.

adjust for seasoning

Taste and adjust for salt and pepper.

mash

If you prefer the stew to be thicker, either mash some of the potatoes or add the cornstarch mix.

make a slurry

Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl until thoroughly combined. Add the mixture to the pot during the last 30 minutes of cooking.

serve

Garnish with chopped parsley and serve.
