Pork and Spaghetti in Tomato Sauce
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 3 bay leaves
- 3 tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
- 1/4 tsp garlic salt
- 50 grams chorizo, sliced
- 2 freshly chopped parsley
- 1 can, chopped tomatoes
- 1/4 tsp onion salt
- 1/2 tbsp tomato paste
- 400 grams pork, cubed
- 1 bottle of beer
- 1 hot chilli powder or hot sauce, add as little or as much as you like
- 1 can of 400g kidney beans
- 200 grams spaghetti
- 2 frankfurters, sliced
- 2 pre-boiled potatoes
- Heat the olive oil with the chorizo until it has gone crispy on a medium heat.
- Then remove the chorizo from the oil.
- Next add the onion, garlic and bay leaves and cook until onion is softened.
- About 3-4 minutes.
- Add the chopped tomatos, paste, garlic and onion salt and let it simmer for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the parsley into the sauce, simmer for another 1-2 minutes.
- Add the pork to the sauce and simmer with lid on for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the beer in and stir well.
- Simmer for 5-10 minutes.
- Stirring occasionally.
- Crumble the stock cube and add to the pan.
- Add the chilli.
- Next add in the kidney beans.
- Don't add the liquid in the can but set it aside in case pork starts during cooking.
- Simmer for a further 5 minutes.
- Break the spaghetti up and add to the pork.
- Replace lid and simmer until the pasta is cooked.
- About 10-15 minutes.
- I added the water from kidney beans plus around an extra 50ml of cold water as it started to dry during cooking.
- Stir regularly as it will stick to the pan.
- Add more water if needs be.
- Add in the sliced frankfurters and stir.
- Simmer for a further 2-3 minutes.
- Check seasoning before adding the potatoes.
- I had left over potatoes so I added them to the pork but you can omit or add fresh potatoes when you add in the pork.
- Cut the potatoes into chunks and add them to the pork.
- Simmer for another 1-2 minutes and turn heat off.
