Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a large oven-safe pot, melt butter and sauté onion and garlic until fragrant.
Add the smoked pork collar, broth, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cover and simmer for 1 hour.
In a separate pan, cook the broad beans with a bit of water until tender.
Mix flour with a little water to make a slurry and stir into the pork mixture to thicken the sauce.
Stir in heavy cream and simmer for 5 minutes.
Serve the pork with the broad beans on the side.
For whole cuts, check a minimum internal temperature of 63°C (145°F), then rest for at least 3 minutes before serving.
