ROAST PORK LOIN WITH APPLES



Roast Pork Loin with Apples image

Feed a crowd with Food Network Kitchen's Roast Pork Loin with Apples recipe. The flavor comes from apple cider, apple cider vinegar and fresh apples.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 (2-pound) boneless center cut pork loin, trimmed and tied
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 medium onion, thickly sliced
2 carrots, thickly sliced
2 stalks celery, thickly, sliced
3 cloves garlic, smashed
3 sprigs fresh thyme
3 sprigs fresh rosemary
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
2 apples, such as Cortland or Rome peeled, cored and cut into 8 slices
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 cup apple cider
2 tablespoons whole grain mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a large ovenproof skillet heat the vegetable oil over high heat. Season the pork loin all over generously with salt and pepper. Sear the meat until golden brown on all sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the meat to a plate and set it aside.
  • Add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic, herb sprigs, and 2 tablespoons of the butter to the skillet. Stir until the vegetables are browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in the sliced apples, then push the mixture to the sides and set the pork loin in the middle of the skillet along with any collected juices on the plate. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast the loin until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the meat registers 140 to 150 degrees F, about 30 to 35 minutes. (See Cook's Note.)
  • Transfer the pork a cutting board and cover it loosely with foil while you make the sauce. Arrange the apples and vegetables on a serving platter and set aside. Remove and discard the herb sprigs. Return the skillet to a high heat and add the vinegar scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon to loosen up any browned bits. Reduce by half then add the cider and reduce by about half again. Pull the skillet from the heat and whisk in the mustard, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of cold butter. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Remove the strings from the roast and slice into 1/2-inch thick pieces and arrange over the apple mixture. Drizzle some sauce over meat and serve the rest on the side.
  • Cook's Note: Pork cooked this way will be slightly pink. If desired, cook the pork to 160 degrees F, but be aware that this lean cut will not be as moist at the higher temperature.

FENNEL AND GARLIC-CRUSTED PORK ROAST WITH WARM QUINCE AND APPLE COMPOTE



Fennel and Garlic-Crusted Pork Roast with Warm Quince and Apple Compote image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 small head fennel with 2-inches fronds attached, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup coarsely chopped onion
6 cloves garlic, peeled and sliced
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh sage
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh oregano
2 teaspoons fennel seeds
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons coarsely ground white pepper
1 (4 1/2 pound) pork rib roast, tied
Coarse salt, to taste
Warm Quince and Apple Compote, recipe follows
2 large tart, firm apples, such as McIntosh, Rome or Cortland (about 3/4 pound)
2 large quince (about 3/4 pound)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup apple cider
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
Coarse salt, to taste

Steps:

  • In a food processor fitted with the metal blade, combine the fennel and fennel fronds, onion, and garlic, and process to a paste. Add the thyme, rosemary, sage, oregano, fennel seeds, and pepper, and pulse to combine.
  • With a small, sharp knife, make shallow crosshatch cuts in the skin of the pork roast. Season it all over with salt, rubbing it in well. Rub the fennel-garlic paste over the roast to cover it with a layer about 1/4-inch thick. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 8 hours. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Remove the roast from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature 20 minutes prior to cooking. Transfer the pork to a roasting pan and roast for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature in the thickest section of meat is 150 degrees. Cover roast with foil after the crust has browned. Remove the roast from the oven and cover it loosely with foil. Let it rest for 15 to 20 minutes before removing the butcher twine and slicing it into thick chops. Serve with the compote.
  • Peel, core and dice the apples and quince into 1/2-inch dice. In a 10-inch saute pan, heat the butter over low heat. Sprinkle the sugar over the melted butter. Raise the heat to medium and cook, occasionally stirring or swirling the pan, for about 3 minutes, until the sugar melts and caramelizes. Add the quince and apples, and cook, tossing occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the fruit is lightly browned and the apples have softened. The quince dice will retain their shape. Add the cider and lemon juice, and cook for about 2 minutes, until reduced but not evaporated. Season with the ginger and salt. Serve warm.

APPLE CIDER PORK POT ROAST



Apple Cider Pork Pot Roast image

Chunky apples, plus onion, thyme, and cider make this comforting pork braise especially appropriate for the holidays.

Provided by Sabrina Snyder

Yield Serves 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (5-pound; 2.3 kg) boneless pork shoulder (6 pounds; 2.7 kg if bone-in)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 yellow onions, cut into 2-inch (5 cm) wedges
2 cups (475 ml) apple cider
2 tart apples (I like Granny Smith), cored and cut into 2-inch (5 cm) cubes
2 sprigs fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).
  • Season the pork with the salt and pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the pork and brown well on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  • Remove the pork and add the onion wedges to the pot. Cook for a few minutes, letting them get a little color but being careful not to let them burn.
  • Return the pork to the pot, placing it on the bed of onions. Add the cider and 1 cup (235 ml) water and bring to a simmer, then wedge the apple pieces under the meat among the onions. Toss in the thyme.
  • Cover and transfer to the oven. Cook for 3 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender, shreds easily, and is a deep brown color; the apples will have caramelized.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork roast: Pork shoulder (also known as pork butt) or pork loin are the best cuts for this recipe. They are flavorful and have enough fat to keep the meat moist during cooking.
  • Sear the pork roast before roasting: Searing the pork roast in a hot skillet before roasting helps to develop a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: Marinating the pork roast overnight in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, rosemary, and thyme adds flavor and moisture to the meat.
  • Roast the pork roast low and slow: Roasting the pork roast at a low temperature (300°F) for a long period of time (3-4 hours) allows the meat to cook evenly and become tender.
  • Baste the pork roast regularly: Basting the pork roast with the pan juices while it is roasting helps to keep the meat moist and flavorful.
  • Let the pork roast rest before serving: Letting the pork roast rest for 10-15 minutes before serving allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

This apple and garlic pork roast is an easy and delicious dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The pork roast is tender and flavorful, and the apples and garlic add a sweet and savory flavor that is sure to please everyone at the table.
