Snake beans and okra with crisp pork

SERVES 4 // PREP 10 MINS // COOK 25 MINS

1 For chilli-mint vinegar, combine shallot, vinegar, sugar, chilli and dried mint in a small bowl, and season to taste. Add chopped fresh mint just before serving.

2 Place half the pork in a small food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Repeat with remaining pork. Heat oil a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add pork, season and cook, stirring occasionally, until fat is rendered and pork is browned and crisp (15 minutes), then set aside and keep warm.

3 Meanwhile, blanch snake beans in a saucepan of boiling salted water until just tender (2 minutes). Drain and refresh, then pat dry with paper towel.

4 Using a slotted spoon, transfer pork to a bowl, reserving 1 tbsp oil in the pan. Return pan to high heat and cook okra, tossing occasionally, until golden and lightly blistered (4-6 minutes). Add snake beans to pan and cook until golden (2 minutes). Season to taste.

5 Divide vegetables among bowls and top with pork. Add fresh chopped mint to the chilli-mint vinegar and spoon over pork and vegetables. Garnish with mint sprigs to serve.

HEART AND SOUL

Not a vegetable but rather a flower bud that rises on a thistle, the artichoke is a complex delight. Its rewards are hard won; first you must get past the armour of petals and remove the hairy choke. Those who step up are rewarded with sweet and savoury creaminess and the elusive flavour of spring. Many of the recipes here begin with the same Provençal braise. Others call on the nuttiness of artichokes in their raw form. The results make pasta lighter and chicken brighter or can be fried to become a vessel for bold flavours all of which capture the levity of the season.
