Leftover roast pork is delicious in many dishes, like my lunch of make-your-own-tacos, and of course, mini sliders. Serve with a side dish of beans sauteed with parsley and garlic for a robust meal in winter, or with a side salad in the summer.
Ingredients:
- 4-6 leeks, washed and with the roots trimmed about 1/2 inch
- Roast pork or another cooked meat, chopped into smallish pieces
- Bread rolls
- 8 oz. pre-cooked beans (we used a tin of butter beans after our lima beans failed to soften in time)
- Chopped garlic or garlic powder
- 2-3 sprigs of parsley, leaves chopped roughly
- Butter, duck fat or oil
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350-400 degrees and put the bread rolls in (they’ll only need 5-10 minutes)
- Cut the leeks into small pieces
- Heat 1 1/1 tablespoons of butter/fat/oil in a pan over medium heat
- Saute the leeks for 4-5 minutes, moving constantly to prevent burning
- Meanwhile, heat more butter in a small pan and warm the garlic (2-3 minutes if using raw, 1 minute if using powdered/dried)
- Put the beans into the pan and heat
- Add the pork or cooked meat to the first pan with leeks, lower the heat
- After a few minutes when the beans are hot, add the parsley, remove and serve
- The leek and meat mix should be done, cut the rolls and serve
