Add the diced onion to the casserole along with the celery and fry gently until softened, then add the chopped garlic.

Return the pork and bacon lardons to the casserole along with the tinned tomatoes and stock. Simmer gently for around 2 hours or until the pork is tender. Add the chopped parsley and oregano.

Combine the flour, seasoning, suet and half the cheese. Add cold water to make a sticky dough mixture. Roll into around 8 balls.

Add the beans to the casserole and place the dumplings on top. Cover with a lid and continue to simmer for 20 minutes until the dumplings puff up.

Remove the lid, sprinkle with the remaining cheese and put under a hot grill to melt the cheese.
