Categories     Pork

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/2 lbs pork loin
3 poblano chiles
1/2 lb oaxaca cheese, crumbled or 1/2 lb mozzarella cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 carrots, peeled and chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 bay leaves
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
water, to cover
3 tomatoes, pureed and sieved

Steps:

  • Char the Poblano chilies over a gas flame until blackened on all sides.
  • Place them in a plastic bag and let stand for 10 minutes to steam.
  • Peel and core the Chilies.
  • Remove seeds, rinse and pat dry.
  • Cut Poblanos into thin strips, set aside.
  • Cut the porkloin in half lengthwise, cutting to-but not through-other side; open halves, laying the pork flat.
  • Cut each half lengthwise, cutting to-but not through-other side; open halves, laying pork flat.
  • Distribute the Poblano strips and cheese evenly over the pork; roll lengthwise and tie with kitchen twine.
  • Heat oil in a large dutch oven and brown pork roll on all sides; set aside.
  • Saute carrots, onion and celery in the dutch oven until softened, about 10 minutes.
  • Add bay leaves, salt and pepper to taste.
  • Place pork on top of the vegetables and cover with water.
  • Simmer until tender (there was not length of time given - I'm guessing at least 1 hour and maybe up to 2 hours - let me know what works when you try it please). (One review suggested 1 hour 15 minutes).
  • Add the tomato puree to the cooking liquid and continue cooking for 15 minutes.
  • Slice pork and arrange on a platter.
  • Pour the sauce with the vegetables over the meat.
  • Serve with white rice.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste, but the flavors were still good. I think next time I'll use less salt.
