Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 200g of shredded leftover pork roast, 100g of mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon of mustard, salt and pepper, and fresh dill for garnish.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the shredded pork roast and mayonnaise. Use a fork or spatula to mix them together until the pork is evenly coated with the mayonnaise.
- Add 1 tablespoon of mustard to the mixture. This will add a tangy flavor that complements the pork. Stir well to ensure the mustard is fully integrated into the spread.
- Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Start with a small pinch of each and adjust according to your preference. Mix thoroughly to distribute the seasoning evenly.
- Once the spread is well combined, taste it and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You can add more mustard for tanginess or more mayonnaise for creaminess, depending on your preference.
- Transfer the pork roast spread to a serving dish. Use a spatula to smooth the top for an attractive presentation.
- Garnish the spread with fresh dill. This not only adds a pop of color but also enhances the flavor of the dish.
- Serve the leftover pork roast spread immediately with crackers, toasted bread, or vegetable sticks for dipping. Enjoy your delicious and easy-to-make spread!
Tips
- Temperature Matters: Use room temperature pork roast for easier mixing and better flavor blending.
- Customize Your Spread: Experiment with different mustards like Dijon or whole grain for unique flavor profiles.
- Fresh Herbs Make a Difference: While dill is fantastic, try chopped chives or parsley for variation.
- Texture Tip: Shred the pork finely for a smoother, more consistent spread.
- Make Ahead: This spread can be prepared up to 2 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Serving Suggestions: Beyond crackers and bread, try spreading on sandwiches or using as a topping for baked potatoes.
- Adjust Creaminess: Add more mayonnaise if you prefer a lighter, more spreadable consistency.
