Best Paul Prudhommes Roast Pork With Gingersnap Gravy Recipes

CHEF PAUL'S PORK ROAST

Steps:

• Heat the butter and oil in a skillet over high heat.
• Add the onions.
• Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are just beginning to brown on the edges, about 5 minutes.
• Add the celery and bell peppers.
• Cook, stirring frequently, until the celery and peppers are softened, about 2 minutes.
• Add the garlic and stir well.
• Add the seasoning and cook until it darkens slightly, about 2 minutes.
• Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
• Preheat the oven to 275°F.
• Place the roast in a baking pan, fat side up.
• Make several slits in the meat with a knife, to form pockets, being careful not to cut through to the bottom. If you make the slits lengthwise, every slice will have some of the stuffing in it.
• Stuff the pockets generously with some of the vegetable mixture.
• Spread the remaining vegetable mixture over the top of the roast and rub a little on the sides.
• Roast uncovered at 275°F until meat is tender, about 4 hours.

GINGERSNAP GRAVY

Steps:

• Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
• Melt the fat and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
• When almost melted, add the onions, celery, and garlic; saute 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in the seasoning mix and cook 5 minutes more, stirring occasionally.
• Add the stock and pan drippings; bring to a boil over high heat and boil rapidly until liquid reduces to about 1 quart, about 25 minutes.
• Then crumble the gingersnaps into the stock mixture and whisk with a metal whisk until they are dissolved.
• Continue cooking 10 minutes, whisking frequently and making sure the gingersnaps are thoroughly dissolved.
• During this time, taste the gravy; if the ginger flavour is not pronounced,m add the 1 tablespoon brown sugar and the 1 teaspoon ginger or add both to taste.
• Strain the gravy.
