Potatoes with Pork, Cabbage and Green Beans

You can balance the flavor and nutritional benefits of pork dishes by adding plenty of vegetables. I cook potatoes, cabbage, onions, carrots, and green beans. Meat and vegetables are separately pre-fried – so they will be much tastier in the finished dish. During stewing, vegetables retain their integrity, complementing the flavor of the rest of the ingredients, and the meat becomes soft and just melts in your mouth.
