2 large cloves garlic, minced
2-3 large green onions (white tips only), sliced
1 medium celery rib, finely chopped
1/2 tsp mixed spice
1 pinch ground himalayan sea salt

1 tsp oatmeal
1/4 c 35% heavy cream, or to desired consistency

Steps:

1. In a saucepan, add pork, onion, garlic, green onions, celery stalk, mixed spices and black pepper; cover mixture with water. Cook uncovered over medium heat for 1 to 1 ¼ hours; stir occasionally.
2. Halfway through cooking, add oatmeal and stir well. About ½ hour before the end of cooking, start whisking the mixture using either a whisk or potato masher. Add a little cream at a time until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Using an immersion blender, smooth creton to desire consistency
