Pork and Chicken Stew — for a big group

1½# pork roast

1# boneless-skinless chicken

fresh ground pepper

1-2t Rosemary Seasoning

3 onions - finely chop one ½

rough-chop-slice the rest

4 stalks celery-sliced

1 lg. Elephant garlic clove - slice-chopped

6 carrots sliced

4-6 spring onions - bulbs and greens - sliced

1 lg. can tomatoes

~ sour cream - optional

Saute' seasoned, bite-size pieces of pork and chicken in a little butter and bacon grease with ½ finely chopped onion. When the pan browns and the meat begins to stick, stir, add a little beer, white wine or water. Let evaporate and repeat process 3-4 times until meat is nicely browned. Add remaining onions, celery, garlic and carrots. Saute' a while longer, until onions are a little translucent, to release the flavors, adding more deglazing liquid if needed. Next add spring onions, potatoes and tomatoes. Simmer with several bay leaves and fresh basil until potatoes and carrots are done the way you like them. Stir in a little sour cream at the end for a tomato-cream gravy. Infuse with LOTS of love and serve with LOTS of hugs to hungry friends who mourn or celebrate. . .Lin
