Method
step 1
Heat ½ the oil in a casserole, season the pork and fry, in batches, for 3-4 minutes until browned. Scoop onto a plate with a slotted spoon. Add the remaining oil and fry the onion, pepper and garlic with a large pinch of salt for 10 minutes until soft. Add the spices and tomato purée, and cook for a few minutes. Pour in the chopped tomatoes and 250ml of water, add the pork back in, season and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down low, put on a lid and simmer gently for 2 hours.

Tip in the beans and simmer for another 30 minutes or until the pork is very tender.
step 3
Heat the grains according to pack instructions and divide between bowls. Spoon over the pork and beans, and top with a little parsley and soured cream.
