Set the Cookeo to the frying mode and melt a knob of butter. Add the finely chopped onion, crushed garlic, thyme, and bay leaf and sauté everything until the onion is translucent.
Meanwhile, peel the pumpkin, potatoes, sweet potatoes and carrots, and cut everything into large pieces. Add to the Cookeo.
Mix the mustard, pear syrup and pear syrup into a marinade. Rub the ham pieces well with it.
Place the ham pieces on top of the vegetables in the pot.
Pour the broth over the vegetables (not over the meat).
Set the Cookeo to high pressure and set for 25 minutes.
Then let the steam escape manually. Carefully remove the ham pieces from the pot.
Remove the bay leaf and thyme if necessary. Mix the vegetables well until you have a creamy stew.
Slice the ham pieces.
Meanwhile, prepare the pickle salsa: finely chop the red onion and pickles . Mix with sunflower oil, finely chopped parsley and chives. Season with pepper and salt.
Serve a spoonful of stew, place the slices of ham on top, and finish with the salsa.
Tips
- You can also replace the ham with pork cheeks or thick slices of pork belly, or beef shank depending on what you fancy
- Add some extra mustard to the vegetables if you like a spicy touch.
- No pear syrup? Use a little honey or apple syrup as an alternative.
