Roast Pork Sandwiches With Sweet Peppers And Arugula Recipes

ROAST PORK AND PEPPER SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Season pork generously with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat for a minute, then add pork. Lightly brown on all sides, about 15 minutes. Remove and cool.
• Enshroud in three layers of plastic wrap, creating a waterproof straitjacket.
• Put a trivet in a roomy pot and place pork on top. Cover with water and place a weight - like a small plate - on top to submerge it. Turn heat to low and bring water to between 170 and 180 degrees - well below a simmer. If a thermometer shows the water is hotter, add ice cubes or cold water. Poach 2 hours.
• While pork is cooking, put garlic in a small pot and cover with oil. Place over low heat and cook until soft but not colored, about one hour.
• Mix vinegar, sugar, chili, cinnamon, star anise and Sichuan peppercorns in a pot. Bring to boil over high heat. Boil 10 minutes, strain and discard spices.
• Remove garlic from oil, and purée it with the vinegar mixture in a blender until silky and loose. Add salt and coloring, if using, and blend again. Taste and add more salt, if needed, and coloring if the sauce is not stop-sign red. (This can be kept for up to 3 or 4 days in the refrigerator.)
• Stick an instant-read thermometer in the center of the pork through the plastic. It should read 150 to 155 degrees. (If not, wrap with another layer of plastic and return to the pot.) Plunge the wrapped pork into an ice bath until chilled. (Once cold, the pork can be stored in the refrigerator overnight.)
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Unwrap pork, put it on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes. Remove, and generously coat the pork with the sauce. Return to oven and cook until glaze is dark and sticky sweet, 7 to 9 minutes.
• Thinly slice pork against the grain. Sprinkle each slice with Maldon salt. Put about 1/4 pound of pork, a tablespoon or more each of roast peppers and broccoli rabe into the rolls.

PHILADELPHIA STYLE ROAST PORK SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Remove the netting or strings on pork roast, keeping them intact to use again. Combine rosemary, 3 cloves of garlic, parsley, 3 teaspoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon kosher salt, and 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper in a bowl. Slice open the pork roast and spread it with the oil and herb mixture. Roll up the pork and secure it with the netting or string. Rub outside of the roast with remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil and salt and pepper to taste.
• Place the pork, fat side up, in a roasting pan or baking dish and pour in water. Bake in the preheated oven, basting occasionally, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours; add more water if necessary. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the meat should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Allow the roast to rest 10 to 15 minutes. Reserve the pan juices.
• While the pork is resting, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Stir in 2 cloves chopped garlic and red pepper flakes; cook and stir until garlic is fragrant but not brown, about 3 minutes. Pour in chicken stock and bring it to a boil. Add spinach, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and lemon juice. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the spinach is wilted, stirring occasionally.
• Cut the string on the roast and cut the pork into thin slices. Return the sliced pork to the reserved pan juices.
• Slice the sandwich rolls and sprinkle each roll with shredded Manchego cheese. Add pork slices to each sandwich, top with spinach, and serve.
