Pork steaks / cubes need using up

LilacPixie

I tend to like loin steaks in breadcrumbs. your could dip in egg and bread crumbs then panfry. You could put them in an oven dish and cover with some really thich cheese sauce some sauted leeks and cheesy bread crumbs bake and serve with cous cous and salad maybe

pork and beans....i did mine in a slow cooker but you could do it in the oven. i browned off the pork and put in a dish, add a chopped onion, tin of tomatoes and a tin of butter beans, cover and put in the oven for a couple of hours (or slow cooker onlow for about 7)

Great suggestions, thanks for your help, think am going to do the baking in the oven in cheese sauce, as my son LOVES cheese and will love me forever!!

hi, i have bought 8 pork loin steaks reduced today, i know i can freeze them but i was wondering if anyone has any recipes for them, all ideas welcome. i would preferably like something hearty, and that i can make and freeze into meals/portions. nothing to fancy as its for me , my oh and 3 kids under 8yrs. im due to have a baby any day so if i could make a couple of meals that could be frozen and reheated, that would be great. sorry if there is already a thread please add. kind regards clairs.:p

This is one my mum used to make and I LOVED, but OH abhors celery so dont get to make it anymore
Brown pork in a casserole dish (can cut up or leave in whole steaks) and set aside.(to be honest thinking about it you cook it for so long can probably just put the raw pork, onions celery in there without any prefrying-makes it MUCH easier ) Fry a sliced onion and half a head of celery in casserole for a few minutes on low.
In a bowl mix:
1 tbsp malt vinegar
2 " " worcestershire sauce
2 " " soft brown sugar
2 " " tomato sauce
1 " " tom puree
1 tsp curry powder
stock cube (chicken/optional)
and about half pint of water. put pork back in casserole, pour mix over top and stick in oven for about 2 hours at 170. can thicken it with arrowroot (or cornflour I suppose) at the end
Was always one of my faves and you can freeze it easily. Yummy with mash or else rice. Nowadays I would probably add carrots and mushrooms etc to it too.

My favourite is pork loin steak with apple, stuffing and bacon.

spread a layer of apple sauce onto steak, add a layer of sage and onion, wrap in 2 rashers of streaky bacon and pop into the oven, lovely.

Not sure how good it is at freezing.

There's a quick easy recipe here: http://www.mydish.co.uk/recipe/587/alis_grannys_pork_sauce_by_claire

I'd change the recipe ever so slightly though and add the sauces along with the apple and simmer for a while to mellow the flavours.

Enjoy

Hi - can anyone help please?

I bought pork loin joints from Cosco, which are top quality meat. Last time I used them I used a recipe I found somewhere (can't recall where - could have been Good Housekeeping) with rosemary. I think I sliced it into steaks and used apple juice or wine but its all a bit fuzzy now! The meat was delicious and I'd like to do something similar today.

Has anyone some ideas or can find a suitable recipe?

The joint/s are very lean and the meat is tender, so it doesn't need slow cooking, and we'd like to eat it this evening.

Thanks for the help

Hi pandora,

There's an earlier thread with lots of ideas for pork loin steaks that should help so I've added your thread to it to keep the recipes together.

I've made them with brandy and apples before and they were lovely using this recipe from Delia: Pork with Apples and Calvados This one is good too: Cider braised pork with cream and mushrooms. I know that those recipes are for braised pork but perhaps you could adapt it for your steaks?

Thank you Pink-winged - that sounds lush. I actually found a recipe on the net for pork loin with lemon, thyme and garlic, which is what I cooked. It was lovely though I overdid the lemon slightly, but fortunately we had it with roasted sweet potatoes that cancelled it out!

I'll have a go with one of the other ideas next time round as I love the idea of using cream in the recipe.
