Tender Slow-Braised Pork Belly with Roasted Asparagus and Sweet Potato Mash
Savor the rustic warmth of tender slow-braised pork belly paired with velvety sweet potato mash and perfectly roasted asparagus. Enhanced with a light, protein-rich drizzle of egg whites and white beans, this comforting dish blends savory and subtly sweet flavors for a balanced, satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz trimmed Pork Belly
1/2 cup White Beans (low sodium, canned)
4 large Egg Whites
6 Asparagus Spears
1/2 medium Sweet Potato
1 tsp Olive Oil
Seasonings (salt, pepper, garlic, rosemary)
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Slow-braise the pork belly by searing it on all sides in a hot pan until golden, then transfer to a covered pot with a splash of water or broth and a pinch of seasonings. Braise on low heat for about 1.5 to 2 hours until tender. Once done, trim any excess fat if desired.
While the pork belly braises, peel and cube the sweet potato. Boil or steam until soft, then mash with a pinch of salt and a little water until smooth.
Trim the woody ends of the asparagus spears, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt, pepper, and garlic, and roast on a baking sheet in the oven for about 10 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Prepare the protein-rich drizzle by gently cooking the egg whites in a non-stick pan until just set, then fold in the white beans and lightly mash to combine. Season with rosemary, salt, and pepper.
Plate the dish by layering a serving of sweet potato mash, arranging the roasted asparagus on the side, and placing slices of the tender pork belly on top. Drizzle the egg white and white bean mixture over the pork belly.
Finish with a light sprinkle of fresh rosemary and additional black pepper, then serve immediately.
