Hirino me Selino

Pork with Celery

Hirino me Selino is made with pork tenderloin, celery, onions, garlic, and a variety of spices. The pork is first seared in a pan to give it a crispy exterior, and then it is cooked in a pot with the other ingredients for several hours until it is tender and falling apart. The result is a light and refreshing stew that is perfect for serving with a side of Greek salad and a glass of white wine.
