Mustard Crusted Pork With Farro And Carrot Salad Recipes

ROAST PORK WITH FARRO SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the farro and cook until just tender, about 25 minutes; drain and set aside.
• Meanwhile, season the pork with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Combine the lemon juice, 1 teaspoon mustard and the garlic in a small bowl; brush all over the pork. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning, until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Scatter the artichokes around the pork and transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast until a thermometer inserted into the center registers 145 degrees F, about 15 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board; let rest 5 minutes.
• Whisk the vinegar and the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 teaspoon mustard in a medium bowl. Add the farro, pecorino, scallions, mint, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; stir to combine. Slice the pork. Serve with the artichokes and farro salad.

MUSTARD-CRUSTED PORK WITH CARROTS AND LENTILS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in middle.
• Toss carrots with 2 tablespoons oil and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a shallow baking pan and roast while preparing pork.
• Pat pork dry and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then brown pork all over, about 3 minutes total.
• Put pork on a work surface and brush with 1 tablespoon mustard. Stir together bread crumbs and 1/2 tablespoon oil, then press onto mustard on pork to form a crust.
• Transfer pork to pan with carrots and roast until carrots are browned and tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of meat registers 140 to 145°F, 15 to 22 minutes. Let pork stand 5 minutes; keep carrots warm, covered (or continue roasting if needed).
• While pork roasts, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil with garlic and thyme in a small saucepan until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in lentils, broth, and remaining tablespoon mustard and cook until heated through. Season with salt and pepper and discard thyme. Serve pork with carrots and lentils.

MUSTARD-CRUSTED PORK WITH FARRO AND CARROT SALAD

Steps:

• Place pork on a wire rack set inside a large rimmed baking sheet; season all over with salt and pepper. Whisk mustard, mustard powder, and 1/4 cup oil in a small bowl to blend. Rub over pork and let sit at room temperature 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 425°F. Roast pork until beginning to brown, 25-30 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°F and roast until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 145°F, 25-35 minutes longer, depending on thickness of roast.
• Meanwhile, cook farro in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender, 30-35 minutes; drain.
• Whisk vinegar, caraway seeds, honey, and remaining 1/4 cup oil in a medium bowl; set vinaigrette aside.
• Heat 2 tablespoons vinaigrette in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add farro and carrots and cook, tossing often, until carrots soften and farro is warmed through, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a large bowl. Add onion, parsley, and half of remaining vinaigrette; season with salt and pepper and toss to combine.
• Slice pork. Serve with farro salad. Pass remaining vinaigrette alongside.
• DO AHEAD: Farro can be cooked 2 days ahead. Let cool, cover, and chill. Reheat before using.
