Method

  1. Heat the oven to 160C/fan 140C/gas 3. Cut the pork belly into large chunks. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large, ovenproof casserole and fry the pork in batches over a high heat until browned all over, then remove with a slotted spoon.
  2. Add the pancetta and cook for 2-3 minutes until golden, then reduce the heat slightly and add the onion and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Stir in the paprika and chorizo and cook for a minute or so. Return the pork to the pan and tip in the tomatoes. Pour in the wine and enough water just to cover - about 350ml. Season, cover and cook in the oven for 2 hours. Stir in the haricot beans and return to the oven, without the lid, for 20-30 minutes. Stir in the coriander and serve with crusty bread.

    I cooked this in a chalet last winter and was one of the dishes I didn't change all season because it was SO popular. Never got served without at least half the table raving about it. Brilliant winter warmer. Cooking with port loin works too but you get so much more flavour using belly.

    Very nice! I used diced leg instead of pork belly because it is much less fatty, I also swapped the pancetta for bacon lardons which are much better value for money.

    Absolutely lovely. Used diced pork loin and smoked bacon lardons instead of belly pork and pancetta, and it worked beautifully. Will def make again.

    Excellent, although this is not slow-roast. Slow-roast belly of pork is even better.

    Great recipe - all I would say is, is that is very doubtful it actually needs any seasoning, what with all that pancetta, chorizo and paprika there is salt and pepper enough! A pinch of sugar helped the tomatoes along though.

    A delicious warming winter dish. I used pork tenderloin rather than the pork belly as I felt it was fattening enough with the chorizo! Would definitely cook this one again.

    Delicious! If I haven't got Pancetta, I use smoked bacon, adds to the wonderful flavour. Chick peas also fab

    Really tasty! Used cubed pork chops instead of belly. Goes very well with warm, crusy baguette and some green veg (and I served baby corn with it too). Freezes very well; I served the leftovers with rice and spinach. Watch the seasoning though, it doesn't need much salt. Will definately make again, my boyfriend loved it!

    I made this at the weekend and it was delicious but VERY rich. I made it the day before and left it overnight then skimmed the excess fat off. Served it with a salad and ciabatta. YUMMY!!!!

    This is absolutely DELICIOUS. I used pork belly as suggested and got the butcher to remove the skin and bone and everything. However I kept the skin and roasted it separately to make delicious crackling - this was really good as the stew has no crunchy texture in it. I also made olive bread, and salad to serve. Would highly recommend to everyone. I made it for 10 of us - there wasn't enough as everyone wanted more!
