Reestablish the removed portlet from WebSphere Portal

Question

There is an ear deployed into WebSphere WAS. It contains 3 portlets. I imported XML descriptor for this app to the WebSphere Portal and put the portlets on portal pages. It was working.

Unfortunately I removed one of the portlets from web modules in portal administration. Because of this portlet was removed from all pages also. I can't find the portlet in portlets list, so I can't put it to the pages again.

How can I reestablish the removed portlet to portal without uninstalling and deploying whole ear application to application server again.

I tried to import portlet XML to portal again. But it didn't help

UPDATE

here is the XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you will need to update the ear. I don't think you have to uninstall the ear, just update it and import xml again.
