ingredients
1 1/2 pound boneless pork shoulder, trimmed of fat and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon boukovo or red pepper flakes, or more to taste
1/2 teaspoon dried mint
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large leek, white part only, washed well and chopped
1 large red onion, chopped
1 cup dry red wine
directions
In a medium bowl, toss the pork with the salt, black pepper, paprika, boukovo or pepper flakes, mint, and orange zest. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, stirring, until browned on all sides. Remove with a slotted spoon.
Lower the heat to medium, add the leek and onion, and cook, stirring, until translucent, 7 to 8 minutes.
Add the pork back into the skillet, pour in the wine, and cover. Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer until the pork is tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Add more water or wine to the skillet if necessary to keep the contents moist.
Serve warm, as a meze or main course.
