Pork and Cabbage Pie

Pork and Cabbage Pie is a delightful Paleo Greek-inspired dish featuring tender, seasoned pork and sautéed cabbage nestled in a crispy almond flour crust. This nutritious and hearty pie is perfect for those seeking a gluten-free and grain-free meal option.

Ingredients

• Almond flour - 150g
• Ground pork - 250g
• Green cabbage - 200g, shredded
• Onion - 1 medium, finely chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Egg - 1 large
• Oregano - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
2. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat and sauté the chopped onion until translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
4. Stir in the ground pork, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook until the pork is browned and fully cooked, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat.
5. In the same skillet, add the shredded cabbage and the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the cabbage is tender and slightly caramelized. Mix with the cooked pork mixture and let it cool slightly.
6. In a bowl, combine the almond flour and egg to form a dough. If the mixture is too crumbly, add a little water until it holds together.
7. Press the dough into a pie dish evenly, covering the bottom and sides.
8. Fill the crust with the pork and cabbage mixture, spreading it evenly.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
10. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
