Comfort food! My mother makes this with potatoes, my MIL makes hers with bowtie pasta.
Ragoût
In a large saucepan, combine
6 pork hocks
2 onions, finely chopped
2 bay leaves
1 Tbsp allspice
4 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
Add enough cold water to completely cover meat. Bring to boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer for 2 hours or until meat is tender.
Meanwhile, make 1-inch meatballs from a mixture of
1 lb ground pork
1/3 cup cracker crumbs
¼ cup finely chopped onion
1 egg
½ tsp salt
½ tsp thyme
¼ tsp pepper
Bone and skin cooked pork hocks and remove bay leaves. Skim off fat. Mix together and stir in
½ cup flour
½ cup cold water
Few drops gravy colouring
Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Add meatballs and
5 potatoes, peeled and halved
Continue cooking until potatoes and meat are tender, about 30 minutes longer. Makes 8 to 10 servings.
Variation: Substitute bow tie pasta for the potatoes.
*Traditionally in French Canada this is thickened with 1 cup browned flour made by cooking in heavy pan until golden brown.
