Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 pork roast (2 1/2 pounds), tied at 1-inch intervals
Salt and pepper
3 Gala apples, quartered
2 sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch wedges
1 tablespoon flour
1 1/2 cups chicken broth

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Coat a heavy-bottomed metal roasting pan with 2 teaspoons oil. Place pork in center and season with salt and pepper. Roast until top is golden, about 15 minutes.
  • Toss apples and sweet potatoes with remaining 2 teaspoons oil and add to pan, arranging around pork. Return to oven and roast until apples and sweet potatoes are tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted in center of pork reads 140 degrees, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove pork, apples, and sweet potatoes from pan. Allow meat to rest 10 minutes before slicing. To make the sauce, whisk flour into pan drippings over medium heat, then slowly whisk in chicken broth and cook until thickened.

TWICE-COOKED PORK TENDERLOIN



Twice-Cooked Pork Tenderloin image

Here's a surprising and flavorful way to prepare tenderloin, one of the leanest and most economical cuts of pork. Brown the whole tenderloin. Let it rest for a few minutes, so the meat firms up a bit. Then slice the tenderloin into medallions, about an inch thick. Brown the slices on both sides and top with a quick French-style sauce made of heavy cream and Dijon mustard, lemon juice or Calvados.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 boneless pork tenderloin, about 1 pound
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons butter, extra virgin olive oil, or a combination
1/4 cup cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, lemon juice or Calvados, optional
Chopped fresh parsley leaves for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • Sprinkle meat with salt and pepper. Put a large skillet over medium-high heat; a minute later add 2 tablespoons butter and/or oil. When butter foam subsides or oil dimples, add meat (curve it into skillet if necessary). Brown it well on all sides, for a total of 4 to 6 minutes. Turn off heat, remove meat from pan, and let it sit on a board. When skillet has cooled a bit, proceed.
  • Cut meat into inch-thick slices. Once again turn heat to medium-high, add remaining butter and/or oil and, when it's hot, add pork slices to pan. Brown on each side, about 2 or 3 minutes each. Turn heat to low and remove meat to a warm platter.
  • Add 1/2 cup water to pan, turn heat to high, and cook, stirring and scraping, for a minute. Lower heat slightly, add cream and cook until slightly thickened. Stir in mustard, lemon juice or Calvados, if you're using them, then taste and adjust seasoning. Serve meat with sauce spooned on top, garnished, if you like, with parsley.

Time 3h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds pork belly (fresh unsmoked bacon), in one piece
12 scallions, trimmed
6 slices fresh ginger 1/4 inch thick
1 tablespoon salt
3 tablespoons peanut oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh ginger
1 1/2 tablespoons chili paste with soybeans (sold in Chinese groceries)
1 tablespoon rice wine or dry sherry
1 tablespoon soy sauce (preferably thin)
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon Sichuan peppercorns (sold in Chinese groceries), ground in a mortar
1 tablespoon cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Place pork, 6 scallions, ginger and salt in large pot. Add water to cover. Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until tender. Remove meat, and discard liquid. When pork has cooled, remove skin and any bones. Cut meat in half crosswise, then slice it thinly lengthwise.
  • Slice remaining scallions lengthwise, then in 3-inch pieces.
  • Heat oil in wok or skillet. When very hot, add pork and stir-fry until lightly browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Pour off excess oil and fat. Add garlic and ginger, and stir-fry 10 seconds. Add scallions, and stir-fry 2 minutes. Add chili paste, rice wine, soy sauce, sugar and Sichuan pepper, and stir-fry another minute. Scatter with cilantro and serve.
