Lidias Pot Roasted Herb Scented Pork Loin Recipes

Steps:

• Put 1/2 cup rosemary leaves, 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, 5 garlic cloves, 8 sage leaves and 1 teaspoon of salt into a food processor bowl.
• Process until you have a fairly smooth paste.
• Lay out the pork loin fat side down.
• Cut along the top side of the"tail" and into the eye of the roast.
• Continue cutting in a sawing motion, unrolling the loin into a rectangle of more or less even thickness.
• Spread the entire top surface of the pork evenly with the herb paste.
• Starting with the side opposite the tail, roll the roast into a compact roll with a spiral of herb filling running through it.
• Tie the roast at 1-inch intervals with kitchen twine.
• Season generously with salt and pepper.
• Set the meat into a round 5-quart casserole dish.
• Add the remaining rosemary sprigs, sage leaves, garlic and bay leaf.
• Pour in just enough water to cover the meat.
• Season the water lightly with salt and pepper.
• Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat to a simmer and cook, turning the meat occasionally, until almost all of the water has evaporated and the meat begins to stick to the casserole, about 2 hours.
• Skim any foam off of the surface as needed.
• Pour off the fat remaining in the braising pan and pour in the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
• Adjust the heat to very low.
• Cook, turning often, until the pork has a caramelized golden brown crust, 15 to 30 minutes.
• Let the meat rest for 20 minutes and then slice into 1/4" thick slices.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a pot with enough water to cover, boil the potatoes for about 10 minutes. Drain, cool, and place in a bowl. Toss with olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon thyme, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, chives, salt, and pepper.
• Rub the pork loin roast with 1 teaspoon thyme, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and onion powder. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Place the roast on a rack in a shallow roasting pan, and cook 50 minutes in the preheated oven. Arrange the potatoes around the roast, and continue cooking 50 minutes, to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove from heat, cover with foil, and let sit 15 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray.
• Combine garlic, sage, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and mix well. Rub mixture over all surfaces of the pork. Place pork on the prepared baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until browned on top, 20 to 25 minutes.
• While the pork is cooking, whisk together vinegar, water, soy sauce, brown sugar, mustard, and cornstarch in a small bowl.
• When pork is browned on top, remove from the oven and reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Lightly coat the top of the pork with 1/2 of the glaze mixture. Return to the oven and cook until the internal temperature reaches 145 to 150 degrees F (63 to 65 degrees C), about 45 minutes. Pour the remaining glaze over the pork during the last 5 to 10 minutes of cooking.
• Remove from the oven and lightly tent with foil. Allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Slice pork and serve with pan drippings and juices.
