We received a few bottles of red wine as gifts last Christmas and since I cannot drink anything with alcohol content above 4% I decided to just use it for cooking – stews and gravies mostly.
I’d like to share this super delicious and simple pork stew that I cooked in red wine.
This dish was inspired by my caldereta but I decided to keep this really simple – just pork and some chillies and red wine and of course the basic ingredients for stew: garlic, onion, salt and pepper, tomato paste.
It tastes so rich and flavorful..soooo good.. we love, love, looove it so much! 😀
I borrowed the name from a pork roast recipe (Sangria Roast Pork) that I saw from a magazine- it uses Sangria as a brining liquid. Sangria is a Spanish/Portuguese wine punch of red wine with some fruits and sweeteners.
I just use red wine for this dish, but I’m pretty sure that if I use Sangria, it’ll taste just as great if not better…I will try it next time 🙂
