total time: 7 hours
recipe by: Frankie
Ingredients
- 1 pound russet potatoes, peeled and cut into bite size pieces
- 2 TBSP olive oil plus a little extra
- 2 pounds pork shoulder, cut into 1-inch pieces
- salt & freshly ground black pepper
- 1 medium head of green cabbage, chopped
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced in bite size pieces
- 1 large yellow onion, chopped
- 3 medium garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 cup water
Directions
- Place the potatoes into a 6-quart slow cooker and set aside.
- Heat the 2 TBSP of olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat.
- Pat the pork dry with paper towels then generously season all over with salt and pepper.
- Cook the pork, in batches, in the hot oil until well browned, about 6 minutes per batch, adding a little more oil if needed. Transfer the pork to the slow cooker on top of the potatoes.
- Keep the saute pan over medium-high heat and add the cabbage, carrots, onion, garlic, and 1/2 tsp salt and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
- Pour the water into the pan and scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon or spatula to remove any stuck on bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Pour the contents of the pan into the slow cooker.
- Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 hours or until pork is tender.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
