Guiness Mushroom, Pork & Apricot Stew 04/15/2011
This meal came out of a conversation I had with my co-workers about what to cook for dinner. It is a really simple recipe but it came out incredibly delicious. I sauteed some onions and garlic in olive oil, then added some chopped pieces of boneless pork ribs. I let the ribs cook for a while then added salt, my home-made seasoning blend, and sliced shiitake mushrooms. I let that cook for a few minutes, stirring constantly then added a bottle of Guinness stout. Lastly, I added chopped dried apricots, carrots & parsnips before covering and allowing to stew for about an hour. What I like about this recipe is that it can be modified to suit individual tastes. The dried apricots can be replaced with anything sweet i.e. honey, molasses, or fruit of any kind. In my recipe, the dried apricots were added to balance the bitterness of the stout and add thickness to the stew omitting the need for flour. You can also add whatever veggies you prefer and skip the meat altogether if you prefer. Yum! Comments Comments are closed. |
