Balsamic Rosemary Pork With Roasted Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Rub the roast OR tenderloin liberally with olive oil, then spread the garlic over it. Place it in a 10x15 inch roasting pan and sprinkle with the rosemary.
• Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 2 hours, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put the potatoes into a pan of boiling, salted water and cook for around 8 minutes, then drain and return to the pan. Chuff them up a bit by shaking the pan.
• To prepare the meat, scatter a handful of finely chopped rosemary leaves over a large chopping board. Sprinkle over some salt and pepper and the ground fennel seeds. Roll the pork across the board, pressing down hard so all the flavorings stick to it.
• Get a large roasting pan that your pork will fit snugly into, and place it on a burner over a medium-high heat. Pour in a little olive oil and place the pork in, fat side down, sprinkled with any flavorings remaining on the board. After a few minutes, when the pork fat is lightly golden, turn it over and add the garlic cloves, onion, celery and bay leaves to the pan. Place on the bottom shelf of your preheated oven for 1 hour, basting it halfway through. (For the last 20 minutes of cooking, you may need to cover the pork with a bit of damp waxed paper to stop it coloring too much.)
• Get another roasting pan, into which you can fit the potatoes in 1 layer, and heat it on the stove. When hot, pour a glug of olive oil into it and add the butter, rosemary and garlic. Add the potatoes and toss them in all the flavors. Add the onions and all the balsamic vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes on the burner to reduce the balsamic vinegar a little. Place the pan on the top shelf and cook for around 50 minutes, until the potatoes and onions are dark, sticky and crispy - removing the pan to toss the onions and potatoes halfway through.
• After 1 hour, the meat should be cooked. Prick it with a sharp knife - if the juices run clear, it's done; if not, pop it back in the oven for another 10 to 15 minutes, keeping the potatoes warm. Remove it from the oven and let it rest on a plate for 10 minutes. Pour away most of the fat from the pan and mash up the garlic and onion. Place the pan over the burner and add the white wine. Simmer until the liquid has reduced by half, scraping all the meaty, marmitey goodness off the bottom to make a tasty little sauce, and season if necessary. Pass through a sieve into a serving pitcher. Then slice the pork and serve it with your incredible baked onions and potatoes, drizzled with the pan juices. This meal goes great with some nice greens or an arugula salad.

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine leaves, garlic, oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper, and pulse to make a coarse, wet paste, scraping down the bowl as necessary. Spread 3/4 of the paste on all sides of roast. Place roast, fat side up, in a shallow roasting pan large enough to hold roast with 3 inches room around all sides. Roast 15 minutes in a preheated 450º oven.
• Meanwhile, combine potatoes and remaining paste in a large bowl. Reduce oven to 350º. Add potato mixture to pan, arranging potatoes around the roast. Continue roasting 60 minutes, tossing potatoes halfway through, or until internal temperature of roast reaches 155º F and potatoes are tender. (If roast is done before potatoes, transfer it to a cutting board and return roasting pan with potatoes to oven.)
• Remove roast from oven and let rest 10 minutes. Slice roast and arrange on platter. Surround with potatoes and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• To prepare the pork: Place cumin seeds, red pepper flakes and peppercorns in a spice grinder and grind into a fine powder. Place in a small bowl and mix in garlic powder and salt. Rub mixture all over pork. Let sit at room temperature, 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, toss potatoes with rosemary, oil and salt. In a small saucepan, bring sugar, vinegar and orange juice to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and continue cooking Sweet and Sour Sauce until it reduces by half, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, swirl in butter and keep warm before using.
• In a 13-inch cast iron skillet, heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. When pan is smoking hot, add pork and sear on both sides. Add potatoes and place in the oven until pork is cooked through and potatoes are tender, about 40 minutes.
• Serve pork chops with rosemary potatoes and drizzled with the Sweet and Sour Sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
• Combine all ingredients on a large greased baking sheet (recommend using tin foil for easy cleanup); arrange in a single layer.
• Roast in preheated oven for about 50 minutes, turning once during cooking, until potatoes are tender.
• Serves 6.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• In a roasting tin, combine a large glug of olive oil, the leaves from the rosemary and the garlic.
• Cut the potatoes into large chunks and par-boil in salted water for ten minutes, or until slightly soft. Drain and lightly crush to create some rough edges.
• Brush the pork with a little of the oil mixture from the roasting tin and set aside.
• Slice the onion into wedges and mix into the oil with the potatoes.
• Place in the oven for 25 minutes, turning the mixture occasionally.
• Wrap the pork entirely with 4-5 slices of the ham. Heat a little olive oil in a frying pan and add the pork for 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned.
• After the initial 25 minutes has finished, add the pork to the roasting tin and return to the oven for 15 minutes.
• Lay the remaining ham on top of the tray for a remaining five minutes, until crisp.
• While the pork is cooking, combine 2.5tbsp olive oil in a jar with the balsamic and mustard. Shake until combined. Season to taste.
• When everything is cooked, slice the pork and serve with potato and onion mix. Drizzle a little of the dressing over the top.
