Loin Of Pork In White Wine With Garlic Fennel And Rosemary Recipes

LOIN OF PORK WITH FENNEL AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Allow the pork to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Place the pork, fat side up, in a roasting pan just large enough to hold it comfortably. In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade process the garlic, rosemary, lemon zest, and fennel seeds until roughly chopped. Add the olive oil, mustard, salt and pepper and process until it forms a smooth paste. Rub the paste on top of the pork and roast for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F. Remove from the oven, transfer to a cutting board, and cover with aluminum foil. Allow to sit for 20 minutes, then remove the strings, slice between the bones and serve warm.

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.

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.

TUSCAN ROAST PORK WITH FENNEL

Steps:

• Toss the garlic, chopped rosemary, 1 tablespoon salt and the red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Make 3/4-inch-deep cuts between the rib bones of the pork. Stuff some of the garlic mixture into each cut. Rub the lemon halves over the pork, then rub with the remaining garlic mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Bring the pork to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Cut each fennel bulb in half, then cut each half into wedges. Scatter the fennel and rosemary sprigs in a medium roasting pan (it's best if the roast fits snugly in the pan). Place the pork in the roasting pan on top of the fennel, fat side up, and roast until a thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers 145 degrees F, about 1 hour, 45 minutes. Transfer the pork to a platter or cutting board and cover loosely with foil; let rest 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, turn the fennel wedges and return the pan to the oven. Continue roasting until the fennel is caramelized, about 15 minutes. Cut the pork into chops and serve with the fennel.
