Rich pork flavour with paprika, garlic and a little spice.
Pork belly with a generous coating of sweet paprika, garlic and spices, giving it a lovely red colour and plenty of flavour. Fry or grill thick slices until the edges turn golden and slightly crisp, or add pieces to a slow-cooked stew. The fat melts gently during cooking, bringing extra flavour to potatoes, beans and vegetables.
Pork belly, salt, sweet paprika, garlic, antioxidants (E301, E331(ii)), dextrose, stabilisers (E451, E407), preservative (E250), spices.
Panceta Adobada brings together pork belly, sweet paprika, garlic and traditional Spanish seasoning. Its rich flavour develops beautifully during cooking, especially when the fat begins to melt and the edges turn golden.
The paprika gives the meat its deep red colour and a warm, savoury flavour without making it hot or spicy.
Cut into thick slices and cook on the grill or in a frying pan until nicely browned. Serve with roasted potatoes, grilled peppers or a simple salad.
For a more traditional dish, add chunks of panceta to white beans, lentils or chickpeas. The meat slowly releases its flavour into the sauce, giving even a simple stew plenty of character.
Try thin slices in a warm bread roll with grilled onions, or use small pieces to add flavour to sautéed mushrooms, cabbage or potatoes.
Diced panceta is also excellent in savoury pies, rice dishes and rustic vegetable casseroles.
A whole piece gives plenty of choice when cutting portions. Thick slices for grilling, smaller pieces for stews or fine strips for dishes where the panceta adds flavour throughout.
The paprika and garlic are already there, making it easy to create something tasty without adding much more.
Always cook thoroughly before serving.
