👨🍳 Istruzioni
- 1
Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Season pork cubes generously with salt and pepper. Sear the pork in batches until browned on all sides. Remove pork and set aside.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Don't overcrowd the pot; sear in batches for better browning. - 2
Add chopped onions to the pot and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic, smoked paprika, and caraway seeds, and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Return the seared pork to the pot. Add the rinsed sauerkraut, bay leaves, and beef broth. Stir to combine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Ensure the liquid covers most of the ingredients. - 4
Bring the stew to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for at least 2 hours, or until the pork is very tender. Stir occasionally.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Low and slow cooking is key for tender pork. - 5
Add the drained and rinsed cannellini beans to the pot. Stir and continue to simmer, uncovered, for another 20-30 minutes, allowing the stew to thicken slightly.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Uncovered simmering helps to reduce the liquid and thicken the stew. - 6
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Remove bay leaves before serving. Ladle the stew into bowls and garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Taste and adjust seasoning at the end, as sauerkraut and broth can be salty.
💡 Consigli Professionali
- ✓For a deeper flavor, you can add a smoked pork hock or a piece of smoked bacon during the initial simmering stage.
- ✓If the stew is too thin, you can mash some of the beans against the side of the pot or create a slurry with a tablespoon of flour and a little water to thicken it.
- ✓This dish tastes even better the next day as the flavors meld together.
