Elaboration

To prepare the pork loin:

  • Take out the head from the rack. Remove the bones and cut. Season and baste.
  • Cut the vegetables into cubes (onion, carrots, garlic).
  • Prepare a white stock.
  • Brown the meat.
  • Add the vegetables and simmer.
  • Baste with the wine and stock and place in the oven, reducing the temperature, turning and basting when necessary.
  • Cook it until the meat is very tender and juices run clear
  • Take out the meat and set aside.
  • Prepare a sauce blending the degreased juice with the vegetables. Add the necessary stock, place on the heat and thicken it with cornstach.
  • Fillet the meat with a cold meat cutter and place it on a baking tray, add the sauce and heat it up in the oven.

For the garnishes:

  • Couscous
  • Broccoli:
    • Clean the whole broccoli with cold water.
    • Cut it separating all the bouquets from the trunk, as the cooking time that they need isn’t the same.
    • Cook the bouquets in boiling water with salt or steam for 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Tomatoes:
    • Cut the cherry tomatoes in half.
    • Stir fry them and add a pinch of salt.

PLATING UP

  • Add the pork fillets in the shape of a fan, 4 or 5 in each portion, depending on the size and thickness.
  • Put the couscous on the other side, and separate the tomatoes from the broccoli.
  • Pour the sauce over the pork.
