Jamie Oliver Pork Fillet With Pesto Food

PROSCIUTTO PORK FILLET

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F/gas 7. Pour the milk into a blender, grate in most of the cheese, add just 10 pieces of gnocchi and a pinch of black pepper, and blitz until smooth to make a sauce. Put the remaining gnocchi and the peas into a 26cm non-stick ovenproof frying pan, place on a medium heat, pour over the sauce and bring to the boil. Meanwhile, lay out a 50cm sheet of greaseproof paper, lay over the prosciutto slices side by side, slightly overlapping, then spread the pesto all over them. Trim the pork of any sinew, rub it all over with a pinch of black pepper, lay it across one end of the prosciutto and use the paper to help you roll it up, wrapping the pork in the prosciutto. Sit it on an oiled baking tray. Finely grate the remaining cheese over the gnocchi, then carefully transfer the pan to the oven. Place the pork at the bottom of the oven and cook both for 30 minutes.
• About 5 minutes before the time is up, take the pork tray out of the oven and use the sage as a brush to baste the pork with the juices from the tray, then carefully tear the sage leaves over the pork and return to the oven for the remaining time. Remove to rest for 5 minutes, leaving the gnocchi in the oven, then serve the pork and gnocchi together, spooning any remaining tray juices over the pork

JAMIE OLIVER'S PORK WITH PEACHES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Score the skin of the pork about about 1/2 an inch apart through the fat nearly to the meat.
• Turn over the roast & slice a pocket into the side of the loin by going about 3" horizontally into the meat. Depending on the size of your loin, you may have to cut more or less into the roast. Be careful not to cut all of the way through the roast because you're just trying to make a pocket.
• Smoosh up your butter & chopped thyme with salt & pepper and smear about half of this mixture inside the pocket you just made.
• Push the peaches into the pocket & pack the rest of the butter mixture on top of the gap.
• Snuggly tie up the roast in 3-4 places with butchers twine to keep the pocket closed.
• Salt & pepper the outside of the roast & place in roasting dish, skin side up, with any peaches that wouldn't fit inside the roast & any other roasting veggies you like. (i.e potatoes, carrots, parsnips, Jerusalem artichokes, etc).
• Cook for 50 minutes to an hour or until the pork is done,depending on your oven.
• Take it out of the oven and transfer roast to a plate to let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.
• Optional: To make gravy, I remove the veggies from the roasting pan & place the pan on top of the stove (don't do this if it's a glass dish). De-glaze it with a little white wine or water. I let the liquid reduce a bit, add whatever juice is in the plate from the resting roast then add a little pat of butter to make it glossy. This gravy is kinda gooey & sweet from the peaches.
