  1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook pork, turning, in batches, for 3 minutes or until browned. Transfer to a plate.

Notes

SERVING SUGGESTION: Microwave brown rice. TIPS: You can also brown and cook the pork bones in the stew for added flavour if you wish. Just remember to remove them all before serving. You can use green beans instead of snake beans. Store any leftovers (without chilli) in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave or in a saucepan on the stovetop.
