BRAISED PORK IN ORANGE SAUCE (CARNE DE PUERCO A LA NARANJA)

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot, add pork cubes and saute over medium-high heat until cubes start to brown, about 10 minutes. The cubes may give off a lot of water; if so, continue cooking and stirring until water evaporates. Add caramel coloring and continue cooking and stirring until pieces are a rich brown. Do not let caramel coloring burn.
• Add all the remaining ingredients except the flour and orange juice paste. Stir to mix well. Then add flour paste and mix well so there are no lumps in the sauce. Lower heat to barely simmering, cover pan and leave to cook 1 hour or longer, until pork cubes are tender and sauce is thick and unctuous.
• Serve immediately, removing bay leaves, cinnamon stick and fresh thyme sprig. Garnish with thin slices of unpeeled orange or orange wedges, and serve with rice and beans, and West Indian vegetables, such as yams, yautia and malanga.

ORANGE MARINATED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Make the orange marinade by whisking together the orange juice, soy sauce, rosemary, and garlic. Pour over pork tenderloin and marinate for at least one hour, preferably overnight.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Drain pork, reserving the marinade, and place on a baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Roast for about 20 minutes until internal temperature has reached 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Meanwhile, strain the reserved marinade and bring it to a simmer in a small saucepan. Serve this as a sauce for the meat.

PORK WITH ORANGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees or heat broiler, adjusting rack so that it is about 4 inches from heat source. Put an ovenproof skillet large enough to hold pork in one layer on stove top and turn heat to high. Sprinkle meat with salt and pepper. Brown meat quickly on both sides, then transfer skillet to oven or broiler.
• Meanwhile, combine orange juice, cayenne, cumin and shallots in a small saucepan and turn heat to medium. Cook, stirring, until it reduces to about 1/3 cup; taste and add salt as necessary, a touch more cayenne and cumin if you like, and some vinegar or lemon juice if sauce lacks acidity.
• If broiling, turn meat once; if roasting, don't bother. When meat is firm but not tough and a little pink in center (about 10 minutes if broiling, 15 if roasting), remove it to a platter. Combine orange rind with parsley. Spoon sauce over meat, then top with orange rind-parsley mixture. Serve.
