Brazilian Pork and Bean Stew
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 (12 ounce) pork tenderloin, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 1 (19 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken stock
  • 3 chorizo sausages, cut into 1/2 inch thick pieces
  • 2 bay leaves
  • salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat, stirring in minced garlic and chopped onion. Allow the mixture to cook for a short time until the onion becomes tender and slightly transparent. \nTransfer the cooked onion to a saucepan, reserving it for later use.
2
Pour the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil into the pan and increase the heat to medium-high. Add cubed pork and cook until it is nicely browned on all sides.
3
In a separate bowl, combine 3/4 of the black beans with 1/4 cup of water. Blend them using a blender until they are finely chopped, but still retain some texture.
4
Add the whole black beans and their pureed form to the saucepan along with the cubed pork, chicken stock, sliced chorizo, and bay leaves. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat before reducing the heat to medium-low, covering it, and letting it simmer for 30 minutes.
5
Season the dish with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
