JAMIE'S TUSCAN-STYLE ROAST PORK LOIN & BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to full whack (240°C/475°F/gas 9).
• To make the marinade, pick the marjoram leaves into a pestle and mortar, bash to a rough paste with a pinch of sea salt, then muddle in 4 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar.
• Slice the green tops off the leeks (keep for soups or stock), then cut the white parts in half lengthways. Wash them, then chop into 3cm pieces and transfer to a shallow, snug-fitting casserole pan with the whole bulb of garlic.
• Score lines in a criss-cross pattern in the pork fat at ½cm intervals across the entire length of the loin (make sure you don't cut through to the meat). Then rub the loin with half of the marinade and place on top of the leeks. Using a small sharp knife, stab the pork skin all over, rub with a tablespoon of olive oil, sprinkle with a pinch of salt and place on a large baking tray.
• Reduce the oven temp to 200°C/400°F/gas 6, place the crackling on the top shelf and the pork on the shelf beneath, then roast for 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, prep the greens. Tear the cavolo nero leaves, discarding the stalks, and finely slice the Savoy cabbage, discarding any tough stalky bits as you go, then finely slice the chard, stalks and all. Cook the cabbage, cavolo nero and toughest chard leaves in a pan of boiling water over a medium heat for 3 minutes, then add the tenderest chard leaves and simmer for 1 more minute.
• Tip the spinach into a colander, then drain the greens directly over it to wilt. Lay all the greens on a clean work surface to cool, then wrap in a clean tea towel and squeeze out all the excess liquid. Transfer to a board and chop everything finely. Reheat in a pan when ready to serve and dress with salt, pepper and a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar.
• Remove the pork loin and crackling from the oven and transfer to a board to rest for 30 minutes. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves from their skins into the pan - discarding the skins as you go - then tip in the beans and chickpeas, juice and all. Place on a medium heat on the hob and gently simmer for 5 minutes, until heated through. Stir through the crème fraîche, season to taste and pour in any resting juices from the pork.
• To serve, spoon the beans onto serving plates and scatter over the cooked greens. Top each plate with two slices of pork, pour over the remaining Salmoriglio sauce and break over the crackling. Serve with a glass of chilled Valpolicella.

SLOW-COOKED PORK SHOULDER WITH BRAISED WHITE BEANS

Steps:

• Pork:
• Sprinkle pork all over with 3 Tbsp. or 5 tsp. salt. Tear 4 bay leaves and 1/4 cup sage leaves into small pieces and scatter over pork. Place pork on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet and cover loosely with plastic wrap; chill 12 hours.
• Let pork sit at room temperature 1 hour. This will help it cook evenly.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large heavy pot over medium-high. Cook pork, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, 15-20 minutes. Transfer pork to a large plate.
• Remove pot from heat and pour off any fat. Discard fat and any leaves in pot; wipe out pot. Add remaining 2 Tbsp. oil to pot along with garlic, juniper berries, peppercorns, sage sprigs, and remaining 4 bay leaves. Cook over low heat until garlic just starts to brown around the edges, about 1 minute. Pour in wine and vinegar. Return pork to pot, placing fat side up, and cover with parchment paper, tucking edges down around sides of pork (this prevents it from drying out). Cover pot with a lid, transfer to oven, and cook pork 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 300° and cook, turning pork every 30 minutes or so and adding a splash of water if braising liquid is reducing too quickly, until meat is very tender and pulling away from the bone, 2 1/2-3 hours.
• Let pork sit until cool enough to handle. Remove bones; discard. Shred meat into 2"-3" pieces, removing any excess fat (it should pull apart very easily but still hold together in pieces). Transfer meat to a large saucepan and strain braising liquid over; discard solids. Cover and keep warm over lowest heat until ready to serve.
• Beans:
• Combine tomato, garlic, sage, beans, and 2 Tbsp. oil in a large pot. Pour in cold water to cover by 1 1/2" and bring to a simmer over medium heat, skimming foam from surface as needed. Reduce heat so that liquid is at a very gentle simmer; cook until beans are almost tender but still slightly starchy in the centers (you want them to be about 75 percent cooked), 35-45 minutes. Preheat oven to 300°F while the beans are still cooking.
• Remove beans from heat; season with several generous pinches of salt and add remaining 1/4 cup oil. Transfer to oven and bake without disturbing beans (you want a film to form on the surface) until tender, 15-25 minutes. Finishing the beans in the oven ensures that they are evenly cooked and creamy. Turn off oven and leave beans inside to keep warm until ready to serve.
• Greens and assembly:
• Working in 2 batches, cook spinach in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender and no bite remains, about 2 minutes. Drain in a colander and let cool slightly, then squeeze out excess water.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a medium skillet over medium and cook garlic, stirring, until softened and barely golden, about 1 minute. Add spinach and stir just to coat leaves in oil and warm through.
• To serve, spoon beans plus a bit of their cooking liquid onto plates. Arrange several pieces of pork and spinach over beans. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
• Do Ahead
• Beans can be made 1 day ahead. Let cool in liquid; cover and chill. Reheat gently before serving.

SPANISH PORK WITH BEANS

Steps:

• Mix the crushed garlic, 1 tbsp of the oil and 1 tsp smoked paprika together in a shallow dish and turn the pork steaks over in the mix to coat them on both sides. Heat a large non-stick frying pan and fry the pork for about 4 mins on each side to part-cook and brown them, then remove them from the pan.
• Add the rest of the oil to the pan and fry the onions, carrots and sliced garlic, stirring frequently for 10 mins until the veg starts to caramelise a little. Pour in the sherry vinegar, allowing it to sizzle in the heat, then add the peppers, bouillon, rosemary, any juices left in the dish from the pork, the cherry tomatoes, tomato purée, remaining 3 tsp paprika and beans.
• Lay the pork steaks on top, then cover the pan and cook for 20 mins until the pork and vegetables are tender. The pork will be cooked and juicy, but not fall apart. Remove the pork from the pan, stir in the parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice, if using.
• If you're following our Healthy Diet Plan, eat two portions of the pork and beans now and chill the rest for another day. Will keep for up to two days. To serve the second night, just reheat in a pan.

DAD'S BASIC MOIST PORK ROAST

Steps:

An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read between 115 degrees F (46 degrees C) and 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
• Return to oven and continue to cook until pork is slightly pink in the center, 15 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

CROCK POT ROAST AND BEANS

Steps:

• 1. Put roast in slow cooker. Dump all ingredients on top of roast. f(Be sure to sort beans and remove any rocks, etc.) Cover with water - water should come to just below the top of slow cooker because beans will absorb most of it.
• 2. Note from my mom: I put this on in the morning before going to work and they're done when I get home
• 3. Another note from my mom: I serve mine with cornbread, but this would be good rolled in flour tortillas.
• 4. Note from me: This turns out a little like a bean and beef soup. Once it was finished cooking, I shredded the roast and poured the beans with juice over it and served it with crusty bread.
