- Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F).
- Season the pork neck with ground tex mex spices, smoked paprika, chili spice, and white pepper. Place in a baking dish and pour over the apple juice. Cover tightly with foil and slow cook for 18 hours until the meat is ultra-tender.
- While the pork is cooking, prepare the vegetable broth by simmering onion, carrot, celery stalk, fresh thyme, bay leaf, peppercorn, and leeks in a pot. Strain and set aside.
- In a large pan, heat rapeseed oil and sauté garlic, sliced onions, butternut squash, kale, and spinach until tender. Add a splash of vegetable broth to enhance flavor.
- Cook buckwheat according to package instructions and combine with the sautéed vegetables. Season with salt and oregano.
- Once the pork is cooked, shred it with two forks and serve over the buckwheat and vegetable sauté. Garnish with chopped flat-leaf parsley.
For a quicker version, use pre-cooked pulled pork and adjust the cooking time accordingly.
This dish pairs well with a light salad for a balanced meal.
