SLOW-ROASTED SPICED PORK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Test your oven with an oven thermometer to be sure it's accurate!
• Score the fat on the pork diagonally with a sharp knife in a crosshatch pattern. With a small paring knife, make a dozen 1/2-inch-deep cuts in the top and sides of the pork to allow the seasonings to permeate the meat.
• Place the garlic, onion, jalapeno, and oregano in a food processor and process until the ingredients are finely chopped. Add the cumin, chile powder, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper and process for 30 seconds to make a paste. Add the vinegar and olive oil and process to incorporate. Rub the mixture all over the pork, including the sides and the bottom, and place the pork in a large roasting pan, fat side up. Pour 2 cups of the wine into the pan and cover the whole roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil. Roast for 2 1/2 hours, remove the foil, and roast for another 4 to 4 1/2 hours, until the meat is very, very tender when tested with a carving fork. Every 2 hours, add another cup of wine to keep some liquid in the pan.
• Remove the pan from the oven, cover it tightly with aluminum foil, and allow the meat to rest for 15 to 30 minutes. Slice, sprinkle with salt, and serve with lime wedges on the side.

ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH ROSEMARY THYME VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Mix thyme, paprika, rosemary and sea salt in small bowl. Set aside. Place potatoes, onion and carrots in medium bowl. Add oil and 1 tablespoon of the spice mixture; toss to coat well. Place vegetables in single layer on foil-lined 15x10x1-inch baking pan sprayed with no stick cooking spray.
• Roast 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, coat pork evenly with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons spice mixture. Push vegetables to one side of pan. Place pork on other side of pan. Roast 20 minutes longer or until pork is desired doneness, stirring vegetables occasionally. Place pork on cutting board. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
• Meanwhile, scrape pan drippings with spatula and stir to incorporate into the vegetables. Lift foil edges to seal the vegetables in a pouch. Let stand 5 minutes to allow vegetables to absorb flavors. Serve vegetables with sliced pork.

GARLIC ROAST POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, leaving the smaller ones whole and cutting the larger ones so that they are all roughly the same size. Put them in a large pan of cold salted water, bring to the boil and simmer gently for about 15 mins until cooked through. Tip gently into a colander and leave to drain and cool - there's no need to shake. When they stop steaming, put them on a tray in a single layer and place in the fridge, uncovered, until ready to roast. Can be done up to two days ahead.
• Once you have put the loin in to start roasting, spoon the goose fat into a flameproof roasting tin and heat on the hob for a few mins. Turn the heat off and, one at a time, turn each potato in the fat so they are completely coated. Make sure they are in a single layer and not touching. Once the oven has been turned down to 180C/160C fan/gas 4, put the potatoes in the oven with the pork and cook for 40 mins undisturbed.
• Remove from the oven and, again, turn each potato. Return to the oven for 20 mins, then remove and repeat the turning process. The pork should have come out of the oven by now, so turn the oven up to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and cook the potatoes for a final 20 mins. Add the rosemary and garlic 5 mins before the end. Once cooked, the potatoes should be deep golden and crunchy on the outside and fluffy in the middle. Sprinkle with sea salt and serve.

MORTADELLA-STUFFED PORK LOIN WITH ROSEMARY ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• Prepare pork:
• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Coarsely crush peppercorns and 2 teaspoons kosher salt with mortar and pestle, then add garlic and mash until a paste forms. Stir in unsalted butter.
• If pork loin has been tied, discard strings. Put loin, fat side down, on a cutting board lined with plastic wrap. Butterfly pork in a spiral cut: Find beginning of a flap on 1 long side of loin (where bone was removed). Starting at inside edge of flap, make a long cut lengthwise down side of loin with a very sharp boning or paring knife, stopping 1 inch from bottom (this is beginning of spiral). Turn knife parallel to bottom of loin and begin to cut your way inward (parallel to bottom), keeping thickness of meat as even as possible, using your other hand to gently lift and pull top portion of meat away from knife, until loin is 1 long flat piece of meat.
• Cover pork with a sheet of plastic wrap and pound to 1/2 inch thick with a smooth meat pounder or rolling pin. Remove plastic wrap and spread 1 tablespoon truffle butter over pork. Top with half of mortadella, slightly overlapping slices. Spread 1 tablespoon truffle butter over mortadella, then top with remaining mortadella and spread with remaining tablespoon truffle butter. Beginning with end that was interior of loin, roll up loin tightly and arrange, seam side down (fat side up), on cutting board. If fat layer is 1/4 inch thick, make very close crosswise cuts in it (about 1/8 inch apart; do not cut through to meat), then tie with kitchen string at 1-inch intervals. Rub roast all over with peppercorn butter, covering fat layer well.
• Put pork, fat side up, on oiled rack in roasting pan and roast in middle of oven 20 minutes.
• Prepare potatoes:
• While pork is roasting, peel and halve potatoes. Parboil potatoes in a 5- to 6-quart pot of boiling salted water 5 minutes. Drain in a colander 5 minutes, then toss with oil, rosemary, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
• Remove pork from oven and reduce oven temperature to 325°F. Add potatoes to roasting pan, turning them in pan juices to coat, then roast pork with potatoes until thermometer inserted diagonally 2 inches into meat registers 155°F, 45 to 55 minutes. Transfer pork to a platter and let stand 25 minutes.
• Increase oven temperature to 450°F and remove rack from roasting pan. Spread potatoes out in pan and roast in middle of oven, stirring every 5 minutes, until golden brown, about 20 minutes more. Transfer to a serving bowl and keep warm.
• Make sauce:
• Skim as much fat as possible from pan juices. Straddle roasting pan across 2 burners, then add broth and deglaze pan by boiling over high heat, stirring and scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Stir together water and cornstarch, then add to broth mixture and boil, whisking, 1 minute. Remove from heat and whisk in truffle butter.
• Discard string, then slice pork and serve with sauce and potatoes.
