Since I am new here I thought I would share a recipe with you.
OK, so you have a nice piece of Pork loin, one of my favorite pieces of meat.
What to do with it. Well you can roast it, grill it, slice and fry it but here is what I did---For a group of 60! I stuffed them and it was fantastic.
Here is how I did it.
Place the loin on your cutting board
.
Take a knife and slice down one side of the loin about 1/2" to 3/4" in stopping the same distance from cutting all the way through
.
Lay that flap of meat over and turn the knife 90 degrees and start cutting into the meat kind of unrolling it as you go.
The idea is to get a slab of meat.
In a bowl you need to make you stuffing. Similar to regular stuffing for Thanksgiving etc. Use bread crumbs, corn meal with peppers, onions, seasonings BUT add some fruits. I like raisins and apples for pork. Add Chicken stock to the stuffing mix until it is very moist.
Place a nice layer of stuffing on the meat.
Then roll up like a jelly roll.
When its rolled it should look something like this.
Tie the roll with butchers twine. Glaze with your favorite pork glaze( I like a sesame ginger glaze). place on a rack, tent with aluminum foil and roast it in the oven at 325 until golden brown.
You don't have to worry about it drying out. With all that chicken broth it will remain very moist.
To serve, cut into slices at least 1" thick. You will have beautiful spirals of meat and stuffing. I like to make a simple onion soup to laddle over the top. A little chicken broth, diced onion, white wine, butter. Saute the onion in the butter, deglaze with the wine and add the broth. Spoon a little over the top of each slice as it is served.
