Left over pork?

This is one of my favourite recipes when it comes too left over pork. It’s great for a quick lunch snack and really is easy to prepare. Also the cooking time is reduced because you are using frozen peas. The best think about this recipe is the amount of work into it, practically nothing.

Regardless roasted pork left overs is the best option as the pork has had time to rest.

Roast Pork and Pea Soup

• ½ Kg of Roasted Pork
• 1 Bag of frozen sweet peas
• 2L of any clear stock, Vegetable/chicken/pork
• 2 Cups water
• 2 Onions finely diced
• 2 Cloves Crushed Garlic
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Juice of One Lemon
• Herb Butter or Normal butter
• Bunch of Mint

Microwave your peas in a microwave safe bowl with a nob of butter. Just follow the instructions on the pack. Meanwhile heat your stock up to a medium heat while your peas are cooking.

When your peas are done just add the lemon juice, mix in your finely chopped onion, crushed garlic and toss like a salad. Olive oil if you want. Then add to your stock and bring to boil. Cook for about 30 mins or longer if you want but it’s really not necessary.

Shred your pork by hand, or if you’re lazy just chop them up roughly and pulse it in a blender.

Combine soup with mint in a blender or use a hand blender and blend to a smooth consistency. To serve just portion out your soup finish with nob of butter and stir in pork bits and serve. If you want it a little sweeter you can garnish with some honey or honey and mascopone.

Enjoy
