I was looking for a good carnitas recipe and found this . I liked that it is easy and the pork and pinto beans cook in one pot. Smells so good while it is simmering. It is a recipe by Nels Peterson. Ingredients:
1 lb dried pinto bean (soaked) |
3 lbs pork roast |
7 cups water |
1/2 cup onion, chopped |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 tablespoon salt |
2 tablespoons chili powder |
1 tablespoon cumin |
1 teaspoon oregano |
4 ounces green chili peppers, chopped (one can) |
Directions:
1. Put all ingredients in a dutch oven. Cover and simmer about 5 hours, or until the roast falls apart and the beans are done. Uncover and cook about 1/2 hour until the desired thickness is achieved. Remove pork and shred.
2. I used some of the leftover cooking water to make rice to go with the meal. I've also used the leftover cooking water as a base for bean soup. Smashed some of the beans and added some whole to the water. Added more garlic, onions, grated carrots and macaroni. Made a great soup.
