Leftover Pork

Magpie27

I made a pork casserole in my slow cooker the other day with pork loins cut up, tinned tomatoes, little bit of chorizo, cannellini beans, onions, celery and a few herbs. It was lovely I'm sure you could change it with whatever you had in the cupboard and I found the chorizo made the pork less boring

I think as it is for tonight I'm gonna go with the chineesy as its tonight and I have a tin of pineapple that has been lurking in my cupboards forever - so you mean do all of the above (tin toms, veg, garlic, stock) and then add pineapple & 5 spice?

Yep - chuck it all in :T As the pork is cooked, I'd soften the veg in some liquid, then add the chopped pork and bring it to a simmer.

As this has fallen from the front page of OS, I'll add this to the existing thread to keep ideas together.

Cold pork slices would be scrumptious on a sandwich if you've got any packed lunches to make, especially if you glaze the roast with a honey & mustard mix. You could cube it and pop it into a stir-fry or even sling it into some curry. Slice it and heat it up with some left-over gravy, perhaps.

That sounds good, I have some honey, would wholegrain or english mustard be best?

i have glazed with either, if you are using English you would need to use a lesser amount

BitterAndTwisted

Whatever you like. I'd be tempted to use the english mustard especially if the wholegrain is particularly pricey, which it often is.

I have both in but think the wholegrain will be nicer, thanks for your suggestions x
