Pot Roasted Pork In White Wine With Garlic Fennel And Rosemary Recipes

ROAST PORK WITH FENNEL & ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Crush the fennel seeds and peppercorns coarsely using a pestle and mortar. Add the garlic and some salt, and crush again to make a paste. Stir in orange zest along with the rosemary and oil.
• Rub the paste all over the pork, then cover with foil. You can now cook the pork or leave it covered in the fridge for up to 24 hrs.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Thickly slice the orange and place in the base of a roasting tin with the onion. Put the pork on top and pour 600ml water into the tin. Roast the joint for 1 hr, add the wine to the tin, then roast for 1 hr more. Baste the joint a few times and add a splash more water if needed.
• Remove the joint from the oven, strain off the meat juices, tightly cover joint with foil, then leave to rest for 15 mins. Pour meat juices into a pan, add the jelly and bring to the boil, stirring to dissolve it. Taste and add seasoning if necessary. Thickly slice the pork and serve with a little of the juices poured over.

ROAST PORK WITH GARLIC AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Mix the cayenne, garlic, sugar, salt, and pepper and press into the roast.
• Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan.
• Roast at 450 for 15 minutes.
• Pour 1/2 cup of wine over the roast, lower the temperature to 325, and continue to roast.
• Add about 1/4 cup of liquid every 15 minutes or so.
• If there is liquid in the pan, use that to baste before adding more.
• Roast until the internal temperature is 145-150 degrees (probably about 1 1/2 hours).
• Remove to a platter, baste with the remaining drippings, and let stand 10 minutes before carving.
• If you want more garlic flavor, push several cloves (sliced in quarters) into cuts in the roast.

LOIN OF PORK IN WHITE WINE WITH GARLIC, FENNEL AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 400°F.
• Using kitchen twine, tie the loin so it holds together or, if you're lucky, your butcher will do it for you.
• Season generously with salt and pepper.
• Roll the meat in the fennel seeds till covered.
• In a casserole, roasting pan or large saute pan which is oven proof, melt half the butter and half the olive oil over medium high heat.
• Sear the pork on all sides (including the ends, until the meat is nice and golden all over.
• If your pork is very lean (my preference), you may need to add a bit more olive oil during the braising process.
• Add the garlic cloves, the sliced fennel, the rosemary and bay leaves and the wine.
• Loosely tent the pan with foil and place in the pre-heated oven.
• Roast until the meat thermometer reaches 150°F.
• The pork cooks rather quickly, so check after about 30-35 minutes; depending on your oven it should be done within about three-quarters of an hour.
• Remove the meat to a platter and cover with the foil.
• Add the remaining butter to the drippings and fennel herb mixture and stir till butter melts.
• Pour on platter around the pork and enjoy.

POT-ROASTED PORK IN WHITE WINE WITH GARLIC, FENNEL, AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• With 2 or 3 bits of string, tie up your pork loin, do this any way you like. It doesn't have to be fussy, you just want to keep the meat in a snug shape while it's cooking. Season generously with salt and pepper, then roll the meat in the fennel seeds until covered.
• In a casserole pan or roasting tray, fry the meat for a couple of minutes in half the butter and a little olive oil, until nice and golden.
• Throw in the garlic, herbs, fennel, and wine, then cover the tray loosely with some wet greaseproof paper and cook until an inserted meat thermometer reaches 150 degrees F. As the pork loin is off the bone it cooks very quickly. Remove from the oven and allow the meat to rest on a plate. Then, without using any more heat, finish off your sauce in the pan, scraping any goodness off the bottom and adding the rest of the butter. Remove any large bits.
