Paupiettes De Porc French Stuffed Pork Fillet Parcels Food

PAUPIETTES DE PORC - FRENCH STUFFED PORK FILLET PARCELS

Steps:

• Flatten the pork escalopes or pork steaks with the flat of a large knife. Salt and pepper generously.
• Mix the finely diced onion with the sausage meat and add the herbs - mixing well with your hands. Season with black pepper.
• Place a spoonful of the seasoned sausage meat on each pork escalope one-third of the way down the scallop. Roll the escalope around the sausage meat, tucking the meat around the stuffing until well rolled. Taking about two feet of string, place the bundle in the middle of the string, and tie; turn one-quarter turn and tie again; turn again and tie again. When you have a neatly tied packet of pork and stuffing, clip off any excess string and proceed to tie up the rest of the pork escalopes.
• Place pork parcels in a single layer in a hot, deep sauté pan with olive oil. Brown on all sides and remove from the pan.
• Sauté the chopped shallots in the oil left in the pan. Stir until they start to colour, then add the flour and the tomato paste. Continue to cook and stir until the mixture starts to colour then add nearly the whole bottle of wine, reserving a glass for yourself if you wish!
• Place the pork paupiettes back in the pan with the bouquet garni and the sauce, cover, and simmer slowly for forty-five to sixty minutes.
• Add the sliced mushrooms and orange zest to the sauce and cook uncovered for another fifteen minutes. Serve 2 paupiettes per person with plenty of sauce and with a selection of seasonal vegetables, gratin potatoes, rice or pasta.
• To freeze: Place them in a plastic container with greaseproof paper in between them, or in a ziplock bag. Freeze for up to 3 months.
• To defrost: Take the paupiettes out the night before you need to cook them and defrost in the fridge. Cook them as before when they have fully defrosted.

PORK FILLET STUFFED FEAST

Steps:

• First make the stuffing by mixing all the stuffing ingredients together in a bowl. Next using a rolling pin beat the meat to flatten the pork fillet then cut in half. Next lay a large piece of cling film on a chopping board and line up the streaky bacon to the length of the pork fillet. Then lay the pork on the bacon and put the stuffing on top. Lay the other half of the pork fillet on top, with the skinnier end on top of the thicker end of the other piece. Then carefully roll in the cling film into a neat package. Leave to set in the fridge until you need to cook (can be made the day before)
• Heat the oven to 180C for a fan oven. Unwrap the pork and place on a baking tray, roast in the oven for approx 40-45 mins.
• Once cooked remove the pork from the tray, set aside to rest and cover in foil. Add 200ml of water to the baking tray and bring to the boil and lift all the sticky bits from the bottom of the tray. Strain the liquid into a small saucepan, add any juices from the rested meat along with the ginger wine and cream, simmer. Mix the cornflour with a little water, add to the sauce and simmer for a couple of minutes until thickened, add salt and pepper to taste.
• Calve the pork into slices, serve with any leftover stuffing and sausage and enjoy :)

ROAST LOIN OF PORK WITH SAGE & ONION STUFFING & GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a saucepan and cook the onion for 5 mins until soft. Remove from the heat. Once cool, transfer to a bowl and mix in sage, breadcrumbs, sausage meat and some seasoning.
• Untie the pork and score the skin well with a sharp knife. Cut down the length of the meat, then open out like a book so you can stuff the sausage meat inside. Close back up to resemble original shape and tie at intervals with string to hold it together. Weigh so you know how long it will need to cook for. This can be done ahead; chill until needed.
• Heat oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 9. Rub the joint all over with salt and pepper and place in a roasting tray. Cook for 25 mins, then turn to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and cook for 20 mins per 450g/1lb. Remove, and check it's cooked through: any juices that run out should be clear. Transfer to a dish, then cover with foil to rest while you make the gravy.
• Spoon most of the fat out the tray, leaving the meat juices. Place tray on the hob or transfer juices to a frying pan. Stir in the flour for 1 min followed by the stock and cider, and bubble for a few mins. Strain into a jug. Serve the pork sliced, with the crackling, potatoes, gravy and veg.
