Ingredients
- 1⅛ Pounds Ground Pork
- 2 Farm Eggs
- 1 Sourdough Bread Boule
- 3 Cloves Garlic
- 2 Carrots
- 1 Fennel Bulb
- 1 Red Onion
- 1/2 Pound Cremini Mushrooms
- 1 Bunch Sage
- 1 Bunch Rosemary
- 1 Tablespoon Pork Stuffing Spice Blend (Whole Fennel Seed, Ground Fennel, Ground Coriander, Italian Seasoning & Ground Garlic Powder)
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Tear the bread into bite-sized pieces. Roughly chop the mushrooms. Cut off and discard the root end and stems of the fennel; small dice the bulb. Peel and small dice the onion. Peel and mince the garlic. Peel the carrots and slice into ¼-inch-thick rounds. Pick the rosemary and sage leaves off the stems; discard the stems and roughly chop the leaves.
-
Place the bread on a sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper; toss to thoroughly coat. Arrange in a single, even layer. Toast in the oven 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oven and transfer to a large bowl.
-
While the bread toasts, in a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 6 minutes, or until browned and slightly softened; season with salt and pepper.
-
Add the fennel, carrots, onion, garlic, rosemary and sage to the pan of mushrooms; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 5 to 7 minutes, or until softened and fragrant.
-
Add 2 teaspoons of olive oil to the pan of vegetables. Add the ground pork and spice blend; season with salt and pepper. Cook, frequently breaking the meat apart with a spoon, 5 to 7 minutes, or until lightly browned and just cooked through. Transfer the cooked vegetables and pork (including any drippings from the pan) to the bowl of toasted bread.
-
In a small bowl, combine the eggs and ¼ cup of water; season with salt and pepper and beat until smooth. Add the egg-water mixture to the bowl of toasted bread and cooked vegetables and pork; season with salt and pepper and toss to thoroughly combine. Transfer to a baking dish. Bake 12 to 14 minutes, or until browned and crispy on top. Remove from the oven and let stand for at least 2 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
