Pork and Leeks in Avgolemono Sauce

  1. In a large enameled cast-iron casserole, combine the pork, beef broth, water, celery, carrot and olive oil and bring to a simmer.
  2. Cook over moderately low heat, skimming occasionally, until the meat is tender, about 1 hour.
  3. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the meat and vegetables to a bowl.
  4. Add the leeks to the casserole and bring to a boil, then simmer over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 20 minutes.
  5. Ladle 2 cups of the hot broth into a glass measuring cup.
  6. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the whole egg, then whisk in the lemon juice.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk the cold water with the flour, then whisk it into the egg mixture.
  8. Gradually add the reserved 2 cups of hot broth to the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
  9. Add this mixture to the casserole and simmer over moderate heat, stirring, until the sauce thickens, 2 to 3 minutes.
  10. Return the meat and vegetables to the casserole and reheat.
  11. Stir in the dill and serve.
