Ingredients:
900g lean pork, cut into 3cm cubes
2 tbsp butter
500ml water
240ml vinegar
1 medium onion, studded with 3 cloves
1 medium carrot
1 small celeriac, peeled and chopped
1 celery stick, chopped
1 tbsp salt
1 tsp caraway seeds
1/2 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
60ml prepared horseradish
Method:
Melt the butter in a large pan, add the pork and fry until browned on all sides. Add the water and all the remaining ingredients (except the horseradish) then bring to a simmer. Cover the pan and cook gently for about 90 minutes, or until the pork is tender. Transfer the meat to a heated plate to keep warm.
Force the stock and vegetables through a fine-meshed sieve with the back of a spoon. Return the resultant purée to the pan and heat through. Pour the purée over the meat then top with the horseradish. Serve accompanied by boiled potatoes.
