Pork Stuffed Papaya Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil in a wok over medium heat. Add the cashews and gently toss until golden brown. Remove with a perforated spoon and set aside.
• Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add the chilli and garlic, and stir-fry for 1 minute.
• Raise the heat and add the pork, greens and lime zest. Fry for a few minutes until pork begins to colour.
• Add the lime juice, soy sauce and papaya. Heat through for 1 minute, stirring.
• Return the cashews to the wok and toss to mix.

Steps:

• For the Thai Paste: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spread the cashews on a baking tray and roast until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Cool.
• In a small pan, cook the ginger in the plum wine until the wine evaporates. With a mortar and pestle or in a blender, puree all of the Thai Paste ingredients. Reserve.
• For the Salad: In a medium bowl, combine the papaya, onion, cilantro, and jalapeno. In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, vinegar, and honey. At serving time, toss the dressing with the salad and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Raise the oven temperature to 450 degrees F. Season the pork medallions with salt and pepper and flatten slightly with a cleaver or a heavy plate. In an ovenproof skillet, heat the peanut oil. Over high heat, brown both sides of the medallions. Transfer to the oven and roast until medium rare, about 15 minutes. Remove the medallions to a plate and keep warm.
• Pour the grease from the skillet and deglaze the pan with port. Pour in the stock and cook over high heat until the sauce thickens slightly. Whisk in 1/4 cup of the Thai paste and season, to taste, with salt, pepper, and lime juice. Keep warm.
• Cut each medallion into slices. Pour a little sauce into the center of 4 warmed plates and arrange slices of the pork on 1 side of the sauce. Mound a little salad in each radicchio leaf, set alongside the slices of pork, and garnish with a few cilantro leaves.

Steps:

• For the som tom (papaya salad): Combine the chiles, garlic and palm sugar in a large mortar and bash with a pestle until it forms a coarse paste, 2 to 5 minutes. (You can also combine the ingredients in a medium bowl and use gloved hands to break, shred and mash the ingredients together.) Add the tomatoes, fermented fish sauce, fish sauce, tamarind juice and limes and mix well. Add the papaya, carrot and salted crab and mix gently.
• For the fried pork belly: Combine the fish sauce, sugar and pepper in a bowl and mix well. Add the pork and massage the ingredients into the meat. Refrigerate 15 to 30 minutes to marinate.
• Place the tempura flour in a large bowl. Coat the pork belly in the flour and place on a sheet pan fitted with a cooling rack. Pour oil to the depth of 1 to 2 inches into a large heavy skillet and place over medium to low heat. When hot, gently place the pork belly in the skillet and cook until golden brown and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Drain the pork briefly on a clean wire rack set over a sheet pan. Serve with the papaya salad.

Steps:

• FOR THE PAPAYAS: Peel the papayas, cut them in half lengthwise and remove the black seeds with a teaspoon. Parboil the fruit in gently boiling, salted water for 10 minutes, then drain upside down on paper towels.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet and sauté the onion, garlic and bacon together until the onion is soft. Add the pork and chili and sauté until browned, stirring to break up the meat. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Pour over the white wine and stir in the tomatoes. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Season, remove from the heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
• Grease a baking dish just large enough to hold the papaya shells and place them, cavity side up, in the dish. Pile the meat mixture into the center of each papaya.
• Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and dot with butter. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until the papaya is tender. Heat the tomato sauce and serve with the sauce poured around each papaya. Serves 4.
• FOR THE TOMATO SAUCE: Heat the oil and sauté the garlic for 1 minute, stirring. Add the tomatoes and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Strain the tomatoes, using a soup ladle to push all the pulp through.
• Return the pulp to the pan and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced to the required consistency. Store for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator or freeze for up to 3 months. Makes about 1 ¼ quarts.
