Jamie Oliver Stuffed Pork Fillet 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

PORK WITH APPLE & HERB STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200°C/425°F/gas 7. Put the currants in a bowl, cover with warm water and leave to soak.
• Melt the butter and 1 tablespoon of oil in a saucepan over a medium heat. Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic, then add to the pan and sauté for 8 to 10 minutes, or until softened. Meanwhile, peel core and dice the apples, then remove the crusts from the bread and blitz to breadcrumbs.
• Add the apple to the pan and allow to soften. Pick the thyme and sage leaves straight into the pan, then drain the currants and add to the pan along with the breadcrumbs. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until the bread is golden brown, then remove from the pan and set aside to cool.
• Place the pork loin on a wooden board. Score the skin with a sharp knife in a criss-cross pattern. Next, butterfly the loin by laying it, skin-side down, on your board and making a slice down one side of the pork, where the skin slightly comes away from flesh. Continue to make long slices all the way down the pork and slowly roll it out until the end, almost like unrolling a carpet.
• Spread the cooled stuffing mixture over the flesh and season well with sea salt and black pepper. Gently roll the loin back into its original form, ending up with the cut side on the bottom and the skin on top.
• Tightly tie 3 or 4 pieces of string around the pork to make sure no stuffing leaks out. Season the skin.
• Place in a roasting tin, add the cider and 200ml of water and pop in the oven for 15 minutes, before turning down to 180°C/350°F/gas 4 and cooking for 1 to 1¼ hours. Trim and wash the leeks, then chop into large chunks. Shred the cabbage and add to the roasting tin along with the leek chunks for the last 45 minutes.

MUSHROOM-STUFFED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until crisp, about 8 minutes. Add the mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste; cook until the mushrooms are soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the breadcrumbs and all but 2 tablespoons parsley. Let cool.
• Soak 10 to 12 toothpicks in water to prevent them from burning. Rinse the pork and pat dry. Butterfly the pork: Make a 1-inch-deep incision down the length of each tenderloin; do not cut all the way through. Open the meat like a book so the tenderloins lie flat.
• Cover the pork with plastic wrap; pound with the flat side of a meat mallet until about 1/2 inch thick, starting from the middle and working outward. Spread the mushroom mixture over the 2 tenderloins. Starting with a long side, tightly roll up each tenderloin. Secure the seams with the toothpicks.
• Preheat a grill to medium high; brush the grates with olive oil. Brush the pork rolls with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning, until a thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers 140 degrees F, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to rest, about 10 minutes.
• Mix the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and 2 tablespoons parsley, the lemon zest, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Remove the toothpicks and slice the pork rolls. Top with parsley oil.

BALSAMIC-BAKED ONIONS AND POTATOES WITH ROAST PORK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put the potatoes into a pan of boiling, salted water and cook for around 8 minutes, then drain and return to the pan. Chuff them up a bit by shaking the pan.
• To prepare the meat, scatter a handful of finely chopped rosemary leaves over a large chopping board. Sprinkle over some salt and pepper and the ground fennel seeds. Roll the pork across the board, pressing down hard so all the flavorings stick to it.
• Get a large roasting pan that your pork will fit snugly into, and place it on a burner over a medium-high heat. Pour in a little olive oil and place the pork in, fat side down, sprinkled with any flavorings remaining on the board. After a few minutes, when the pork fat is lightly golden, turn it over and add the garlic cloves, onion, celery and bay leaves to the pan. Place on the bottom shelf of your preheated oven for 1 hour, basting it halfway through. (For the last 20 minutes of cooking, you may need to cover the pork with a bit of damp waxed paper to stop it coloring too much.)
• Get another roasting pan, into which you can fit the potatoes in 1 layer, and heat it on the stove. When hot, pour a glug of olive oil into it and add the butter, rosemary and garlic. Add the potatoes and toss them in all the flavors. Add the onions and all the balsamic vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes on the burner to reduce the balsamic vinegar a little. Place the pan on the top shelf and cook for around 50 minutes, until the potatoes and onions are dark, sticky and crispy - removing the pan to toss the onions and potatoes halfway through.
• After 1 hour, the meat should be cooked. Prick it with a sharp knife - if the juices run clear, it's done; if not, pop it back in the oven for another 10 to 15 minutes, keeping the potatoes warm. Remove it from the oven and let it rest on a plate for 10 minutes. Pour away most of the fat from the pan and mash up the garlic and onion. Place the pan over the burner and add the white wine. Simmer until the liquid has reduced by half, scraping all the meaty, marmitey goodness off the bottom to make a tasty little sauce, and season if necessary. Pass through a sieve into a serving pitcher. Then slice the pork and serve it with your incredible baked onions and potatoes, drizzled with the pan juices. This meal goes great with some nice greens or an arugula salad.

PORK WITH PEACHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C/gas 7).
• Score the skin of the pork through the fat, the incisions should be about 1 centimeter apart. Turn over. Make a pocket for the stuffing by cutting an incision at an angle, about 3 inches (7.5 centimeters) deep in the center of the streaky part of the loin, working away from the eye meat. Starting slightly in from the side of the meat, slowly slice along the loin not quite to the end, this will ensure your stuffing won't fall out.
• Chop half the thyme with 1 clove of garlic and scrunch together with the butter, 1 tin of peaches, and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Push the butter into the pocket and pat back into shape. Lay the pancetta, bacon or Parma ham over the pork, leaving the skin side uncovered, and tie up firmly with 3 to 4 pieces of string.
• Place skin-side up in a roasting tray with the remaining peaches, the garlic cloves, thyme, and half of the white wine. Roast for around 1 hour until the skin is crisp and golden.
• When ready, remove the pork and peaches to a plate and leave to rest for 15 minutes whilst you finish the sauce. To do this, remove most of the fat from the roasting tray, then place the tray over a high heat. Squash the cooked garlic and add 1 tablespoon of flour. Stir and add the rest of the wine with a glass of water or stock. Simmer and leave to reduce for a few minutes. Strain and add any extra juices from the rested pork. Check the seasoning and consistency and serve drizzled over the sliced 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.
