Pork stew

Over the sautéed onion, add the minced meat, chopped with a cleaver, and sauté everything for 30 minutes, stirring constantly to achieve an even texture and prevent the meat from sticking to the bottom of the pan. It is essential that all the meat is cooked evenly, so do not hesitate to break it into smaller pieces to allow for even frying. Once the meat starts to change color and becomes slightly browned, it's time to add the spices.

This is where the magic of flavor comes in! Sprinkle salt and pepper to taste, being careful not to overdo it, as the broth will also add a certain level of salt. Then, add the broth, which will give the dish a rich flavor and vibrant color. The bay leaves add a distinct, aromatic note that is essential for a well-cooked meat dish.

To add extra complexity to the flavor, pour in red or white wine, depending on your preference, which will help reveal the flavors of the meat and vegetables. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes, so that the alcohol from the wine evaporates, leaving only the intense flavor behind. At this stage, the aroma in the pan will become so tempting that it will be hard to resist the temptation to taste the mixture.

After simmering for 5 minutes, check the consistency of the sauce. If it seems too thick, you can add a little water or meat broth to thin it out. If you want to intensify the flavor, let the sauce simmer on low heat, covered, for 10-15 minutes, so that all the ingredients blend harmoniously. Finally, make sure the taste is balanced and adjust the spices to your preference. This recipe will not only fill the house with inviting aromas, but it will surely become a favorite dish for the whole family. Serve alongside mashed potatoes or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
