PORK ROAST WITH CUMIN-SPIKED MIXED BERRY SAUCE AND ROASTED PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Cut 1/3 of the pork off the entire loin. Transfer both pieces of pork to the prepared baking dish. Season the pork all over with salt and black pepper.
• In a small bowl, combine the strawberries, strawberry preserves, raspberry preserves, boysenberry preserves, and cumin. Mix well. Pour the mixture all over the larger portion of the pork.
• Arrange the parsnips all around the pork. Lightly coat the parsnips with the cooking spray and season with salt and ground black pepper.
• Roast for 45 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer reads at least 160 degrees F (the meat may still be pink in the center).
• Let the pork rest for 10 minutes.
• Slice crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices using 1 pound of pork for this meal (with parsnips and snow peas), slice 1 pound crosswise into 8 (1/2-inch) thick slices for a second meal (chili-seared pork with pineapple salsa), and shred the remaining 1 pound pork for the third meal (radicchio cups with pork and seasoned rice).
• In a medium skillet, saute the snow peas in the butter over medium-low heat until tender-crisp. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste.

JAMIE OLIVER'S ROAST POTATOES, PARSNIPS, AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°.
• Peel the vegetables and halve any larger ones lengthways. Break the garlic bulb into cloves, leaving them unpeeled, and bash them slightly with the palm of your hand. Pick the rosemary leaves from the woody stalks.
• Put the potatoes and carrots into a large pan - you may need to use two - of salted, boiling water on a high heat and bring back to the boil.
• Allow to boil for 5 minutes, then add the parsnips and cook for another 4 minutes.
• Drain in a colander and allow to steam dry. Take out the carrots and parsnips and put to one side.
• Fluff up the potatoes in the colander by shaking it around a little - it's important to 'chuff them up' like this if you want them to have all those lovely crispy bits when they're cooked.
• Add the olive oil, garlic, and rosemary leaves.
• Put the vegetables into the tray with a good pinch of salt and pepper and stir them around to coat them in the flavours.
• Spread them out evenly into one layer - this is important, as you want them to roast, not steam as they will if you have them all on top of each other
• Cook for approximately 40 minutes or until the vegetables become browned and crispy.

MAPLE-ROAST PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Peel the parsnips and then halve them crosswise, then halve or quarter each piece lengthwise.

PORK ROAST WITH CARAMELIZED PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Coarsely grind 2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, the fennel seeds, orange zest, and chopped rosemary in a mini chopper or a spice grinder. Rub spice mixture all over pork, and insert rosemary sprig under twine. Transfer to a large, heavy ovenproof skillet (preferably cast iron) or a roasting pan.
• Roast pork for 20 minutes. Toss parsnips with oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt; arrange around pork. Roast for 20 minutes. Stir parsnips. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of pork reaches 140 degrees, about 15 minutes more. Transfer pork and parsnips to platter, and let pork rest for 10 minutes before untying and slicing. (If parsnips are not uniformly golden, return to oven for 5 minutes while pork rests.)

ROAST PARSNIPS WITH MAPLE SYRUP & ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Halve the parsnips down their length (as they are not too big, the cores shouldn't be woody so there is no need to remove them), then cut each half into 3 equal pieces. To do this, cut off the bottom and halve the top down the length. Boil for 5 mins, then drain well and toss with the flour.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put the oil in a large roasting tin and heat in the oven for 5 mins. Add the parsnips, turn them in the oil and give the tin a shake so that all the parsnips are in contact with the base of the tin. Roast for 30 mins, turning once, until golden. Tip onto a platter, drizzle with the maple syrup and scatter with rosemary and salt.

SAVORY ROAST PORK WITH APPLES AND PARSNIPS

Steps:

• To serve, remove roast and allow to rest for a few minutes. Slice into serving sized pieces and place on a platter. Place apples, onions and parsnips around the roast.
• Strain the juices remaining in the crock pot into a medium sauce pan and place pan over medium heat. Add cornstarch to a bowl or small container with a tight lid and add 1/4 cup cold water. Stir or shake well until no clumps remain. Pour mixture into saucepan containing hot juices and whisk over medium heat until desired consistency is reached.
• Pour thickened juices into a gravy boat or other serving container and serve alongside platter of roast.

ROAST PARMESAN PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Mix together the polenta, Parmesan and nutmeg, and set aside. Bring a pan of salted water to the boil, tip in the parsnips and cook for 6 mins or until just tender. Drain. While parsnips are still hot, toss with the Parmesan mixture to coat.

Arrange vegetables around pork. Roast until instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of meat registers 120°F, 30 to 45 minutes. Pour remaining marmalade mixture over pork, increase oven temperature to 450°F, and roast until instant-read thermometer registers 140°F, 15 to 20 minutes. 3. Transfer roast to cutting board and tent with foil. Toss vegetables and juices and redistribute evenly over pan bottom. Roast until juices thicken and vegetables caramelize, about 10 minutes. Slice pork and serve with roasted vegetables, pouring pan juice over meat. Serves 6 Notes Why this recipe works: For our Marmalade-Glazed Pork Roast with Parsnips and Onions recipe, we prefer a well-marbled pork loin roast from the blade. Glossing the roast with a bittersweet marmalade and rosemary glaze adds plenty of flavor to the rather mild pork. By roasting the parsnips and red onions in the skillet alongside the roast, we created a complete meal from one pan. Tossing the vegetables in the same glaze--enriched with olive oil and thinned with orange juice--gave them a glossy look and sweet taste. Allowing the roast to rest at least 10 minutes before slicing allowed the juices to redistribute through the meat. For best results, avoid using enhanced pork (pork injected with a solution of water, salt, and chemicals); it causes the pork to exude excess liquid as it cooks, inhibiting the caramelization of the vegetables.

UNBELIEVABLE ROAST PORK WITH STUFFED APPLES AND PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 220C/425F/gas 7. Sometimes the fat in pork can be too thick and never goes crisp. So ask your butcher to score through the skin about 1cm/1/2 inch apart then remove it from the loin. You want to try to leave about 0.5cm/1/4 inch of fat on the loin, and score this across so it goes nice and crisp when you cook it. Season the skin well and place on a tray in the oven to start crackling - this will take around 15-20 minutes, depending on how moist the skin is. Remove when golden and crisp and put to one side. Meanwhile parboil your parsnips and red onions in boiling, salted water for about 5 minutes. In a pestle and mortar (or in a metal bowl using the end of a rolling pin) bash up the sage, allspice, nutmeg, garlic and orange zest with a good pinch of salt and pepper until you have a fine powder. Put the mixture into a bowl with your butter, then mix it all up well. Run a knife around the middle of each apple - this will stop them bursting when they cook. Remove the core with a peeler without piercing right through the apple (see picture opposite) and discard. Pack your flavoured butter into the cavity of each apple where the core was - any excess butter can be smeared all over the pork loin. Place the apples in the tray, butter side facing down, with the parboiled parsnips and red onions. Put the pork on top and place in the oven for 1 hour. After half an hour, take the tray out of the oven, remove the pork to a plate, and carefully toss the onion and parsnips in all the lovely cooking juices, trying not to disrupt the apples. Put the pork back on top and continue cooking for half an hour at 180?C/350F/gas 4 until nice and golden. When done, remove the pork from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Turn the oven off, but keep the veggies and crackling warm in the oven until you're ready to serve. Carve the pork and divide between your 6 plates with the veggies and an apple each.

ROAST PARSNIPS WITH SESAME AND HONEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Bring a pan of water to a boil. Peel the parsnips, cut them in half lengthwise, and then into fat chunks. When the water boils, lower them in and simmer for ten minutes, until they show early signs of tenderness. Remove from the heat and drain.
• Pour a glug of oil into a roasting pan, add the drained parsnips, and toss them with sea salt, pepper, and some chopped needles of rosemary. A tablespoon or so will do. Roast for about forty minutes, turning them in the pan occasionally, so that they end up with a pale, golden crust on all sides. In a dry, shallow pan, lightly brown the sesame seeds. They will take barely a minute or so to color.
• Put the honey into a small bowl and whisk in the vinegar, peanut oil, and sesame oil with a small grinding of salt and black pepper. Remove the parsnips from the oven and immediately toss them in the honey dressing, scattering over the toasted sesame seeds as you go.
