Roast Pork With Onion Stuffing image

This is a family favorite. I adapted it from "My Great Recipes." You won't believe how creamy and delicious the onion stuffing tastes. Fresh-ground nutmeg really makes it shine, but ready-made will do in a pinch! :) The pan dripping gravy is fabulous, too. Active work time takes place while roast is cooking.

Time 2h20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 lbs pork loin
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon thyme leaves
1/4 cup butter
4 large onions, chopped (I prefer Vidalia or Texas Sweet, should be about 4 cups total)
1/4 cup flour
1 teaspoon chicken base (boullion works just fine)
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup water
1 tablespoon cornstarch, mixed with 1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325. Rub roast with oil and sprinkle with thyme and salt and pepper. Roast until meat registers 170 degrees (about 2 hours).
  • Meanwhile, melt butter in medium frying pan. Add onions and cook for ten minutes until soft.
  • Add flour, chicken stock base, nutmeg, lemon juice, and 1 cup water. Cook until thickened and creamy.
  • Remove roast from oven, and slice almost through (I make the slices about 3/4" thick, you make them whatever thickness you prefer for single servings.).
  • Stuff with onion filling, and spread any extra over the top of the roast. Return roast to oven and bake about 30 minutes more, until top is nicely browned.
  • Remove roast from pan and cover to keep warm while making gravy.
  • Stir one cup of water into pan drippings, then add cornstarch/water mixture and stir until thickened. (You may want to put the roasting pan on a burner on low heat to get the gravy to the right thickness.).
