Bean & Pork Stew

While we stayed in the Amalfi coast region (south of Napoli), our wonderful couchsurfing hosts, Aude and Mimmo, made this fantastic soup for us! My instructions are very rough (sorry - I only ate it!) but with try this when you want to experiment. :)

Ingredients:

• olive oil
• large beans (fagioli) 
• pork (from the cheek)
• celery, onion, garlic
• white wine
• large toasted breadcrumbs

Instructions:

1. Soak the beans overnight. 
2. Cook chopped onion and garlic in olive oil, then add the pork. Add white wine.
3. Add celery and cook for ~ 5 minutes.
4. Add water and beans, cover and let simmer for 30 minutes to let flavors combine.
5. To serve, pour over breadcrumbs. Top with a swirl of olive oil and dry oregano.
6. Buon appettito!
