Red Flannel Pork Hash
- 1 tablespoon butter or duck or goose fat
- 1/2 medium onion, chopped
- 1 small rib celery, chopped
- 2 medium-small new potatoes, cooked, peeled and diced
- 1 small beet, roasted or boiled, peeled and diced
- 3 ounces cooked pork, chopped
- 1/4 cup stock (beef, veal, goosewhatevers on hand)
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- Chopped fresh parsley
- Melt the butter in a small heavy pan.
- Stir in the onion and celery, and cook gently until slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the potatoes, beet, pork, and stock.
- Salt and pepper lightly, and cook slowly, covered, over low heat.
- Remove the cover, and let the bottom brown.
- Watch carefully, because it can easily blacken.
- When it is browned, press down firmly with an ample spatula, turn the whole hash over (probably in two or three pieces), and brown the other side.
- Transfer to a warm plate, and sprinkle a little parsley on topand enjoy a lovely, nostalgic-tasting supper.
- Other aromatic vegetables you might use: carrots or other root vegetables, cut in very fine dice; a couple of button mushrooms, chopped; an equal amount of fennel in place of the celery rib.
