      Title: Hoirino me Selino: Lemon Pork With Celery
 Categories: Pork, Citrus, Stews, Vegetables
      Yield: 8 Servings

  3 1/4 lb Boneless pork; in 2" chunks
  4 1/4 lb Celery with leaves
      2 md Onions; fine chopped
    3/4 c  Olive oil
    1/4 c  Lemon juice; fresh squeezed
      1 tb Salt
    1/2 ts Pepper
      3 c  Water; up to 4 c

  This stew is a favorite combination of tastes... meat,
  in this case pork, stewed with a green vegetable
  (celery), doused with lemon juice before serving. It's
  easy and delicious.

  This is one of the few Greek recipes that calls for
  thick stemmed celery, and not wild celery.

  Trim and wash the celery. Cut in long strips and cut
  strips into 1-1/2" to 2" pieces. Transfer to a saucepan
  with cold water to cover, bring to a boil, and boil for
  10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  In a dutch oven or stew pot, saute the onion in hot oil.
  When the onion is soft, add the pork and 3 cups of water.
  Bring to a boil, cover, and cook over medium heat for 45
  minutes. Add celery, salt, and pepper, reduce heat and
  simmer for 25 minutes. Do not stir the pot. Shake gently
  from time totime to prevent meat from sticking.

  Add lemon juice and shake the pot gently. Turn off heat,
  cover, and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

  Note: If more water is needed, add boiling water.
