Today, I wanted to share a unique dish that always brings me comfort and warmth on a cool autumn evening. The combination of flavors and textures in this recipe creates a truly unforgettable culinary experience.

Ingredients:

  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • large mixing bowl
  • skillet
  • spatula

In this dish, you will need:
– 300g pork belly, sliced
– 1 large sweet potato, peeled and diced
– 1/2 cup cranberries
– 1 tbsp maple syrup
– 1 tsp smoked paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation:

Start by heating a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the sliced pork belly and cook until browned and crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the diced sweet potato and cook until tender. Add the cranberries, maple syrup, smoked paprika, and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the cranberries burst and the flavors meld together.

Return the cooked pork belly to the skillet and toss everything together until well combined.

Serving:

This dish weighs approximately 900g when cooked and serves 4 people. Each serving is around 225g and packs a comforting ~450 calories.

Tips:

For a twist, try adding a handful of chopped pecans to the dish before serving. The crunch of the pecans adds a delightful contrast to the tender pork belly and sweet cranberries.

I highly encourage you to give this unique pork belly and sweet potato dish a try. Feel free to experiment with different ingredients and seasonings to make it your own. Enjoy!
