Coriander Pork Tenderloin With Carrot Ginger Sauce Recipes

CORIANDER PORK ROAST

Steps:

• Combine 2 tablespoons salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, the coriander, red pepper flakes, sage, thyme, rosemary, bay leaf and garlic in a food processor and pulse to make a paste. Pierce the pork all over with a paring knife, then rub with the spice paste. Tie the roast with kitchen twine so it keeps its shape.
• Transfer the meat to a 6-quart slow cooker. Add the juice of 1 orange and 1 lemon along with the chicken broth, potatoes and rutabaga. Cover and cook on high, 7 1/2 hours.
• Transfer the meat to a cutting board; cover with foil and set aside. Skim off the fat from the cooking liquid. Add the tomatoes, sugar and the juice of the remaining orange and lemon to the slow cooker; cover and cook on high, 30 more minutes. Stir in the mint just before serving.
• Remove the twine from the pork and slice. Serve with the vegetables and cooking liquid.

HONEY-GINGER PORK WITH CARROTS AND APPLES

Steps:

• Season pork with salt and pepper. Warm oil in large skillet with lid over medium-high heat; add tenderloins and cook until browned on all sides, 8-10 minutes. Remove pork to a plate and set aside.
• Return skillet to medium heat and add apple juice, honey and ginger, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet. Stir in carrots. Return pork to skillet, nestling it into carrots. Reduce to simmer, cover and cook 5 minutes.
• Add the apples, cover, and continue to cook until the internal temperature of the pork reaches between 145°F (medium rare) and 160°F (medium) and the carrots and apple are tender, about 5 minutes. Remove the pork from the skillet and let rest 5 minutes. Meanwhile, season carrot-apple mixture with salt to taste. Slice pork and serve with carrots, apples and pan sauce.

MOROCCAN-SPICED PORK ROAST

Steps:

• Butterfly the pork loin by cutting almost all the way through, starting on the thinnest side, keeping your knife flat and parallel to the cutting board. Stop about 1 inch from the opposite edge you started, so that the meat opens up like a book. A few more shallow cuts can be made if the pork is not opening up enough to flatten out, but do not cut all the way through, otherwise you'll end up with two pieces.
• Season the butterflied pork on both sides with kosher salt and let sit out at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes, or 2 to 3 hours in the fridge.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a roasting pan with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Pat the tenderloin dry with a paper towel.
• Mix cumin, coriander, ginger, black pepper, smoked paprika,cayenne, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, and honey together in a bowl with a spoon. Spread about half of the spice mixture inside the butterflied pork, fold it back together, and spread the remaining mixture all over the surface. Use 3 or 4 pieces of kitchen string to tie the loin up every few inches, cutting off extra string.
• Toss potatoes, carrots, chile peppers, and onion with olive oil and salt in a bowl.
• Place the pork into the prepared roasting pan and surround with vegetable mixture.
• Roast in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the loin reads at least 140 to 145 degrees F (60 to 63 degrees C), about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn roast over with tongs in pan drippings. Transfer to a plate, cover loosely with foil, and let rest for 15 minutes.
• Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Toss vegetable mixture in pan drippings and return to the oven to crisp up, about 10 minutes.
• Combine yogurt, mint, and garlic in a small bowl for sauce.
• Remove strings on roast. Slice, spoon pan drippings over, and serve with vegetables and yogurt sauce.

CORIANDER PORK TENDERLOIN WITH CARROT-GINGER SAUCE

Drain; reserve cooking liquid. Transfer carrots to processor. Puree until smooth. Add cream and ginger and process to blend. Transfer puree to heavy small saucepan.

Rewarm before serving.)
• Coarsely grind coriander seeds in spice grinder or blender. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. Press coriander onto pork, coating completely. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in each of 2 heavy large nonstick skillets over medium-high heat. Add 1 pork tenderloin to 1 skillet and 2 pork tenderloins to second skillet. Brown pork on all sides and cook until thermometer inserted into center registers 155°F, about 25 minutes.
• Transfer pork to cutting board. Let rest 5 minutes. Cut pork into 1-inch-thick slices. Spoon sauce onto plates. Top with pork and serve.
