Guava Mango And White Cheese Stuffed Roast Pork Recipes

PORK ROAST STUFFED WITH HAM AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Liberally salt and pepper the pork loin on all sides. On a sturdy work surface, slice the pork roast 4 times evenly, about 3/4 of the way down the roast. Wrap each ham slice around each cheese slice and place 1 into each of the 4 cuts. Tie the roast with kitchen string, or secure the roast closed with toothpicks. In a Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork loin quickly so that the roast gets color, but the cheese doesn't melt. Remove the roast and set aside.
• Add the carrots and onions to the pan and cook until the onions are translucent and the vegetables are softened. Add the flour and stir to mix. Deglaze with the wine, and add the roast back into the pan along with the chicken stock and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer on low for 1 hour 30 minutes.
• Remove the roast from the pan once it's cooked and reduce the sauce for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, heat a large saute pan over high heat, add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and then the mushrooms. Toss to coat in the oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook the mushrooms until they are golden, then add to the sauce. Whisk in the sour cream to the sauce. Slice the pork roast and serve with sauce poured on top. Garnish with parsley.

ROAST PORK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Put the pork into a roasting pan and roast it for 8 hours. No salt added.
• Remove the pork from the oven to a cutting board. Let rest until cool enough to handle, then shred and add it to a serving bowl.
• Puree the lemon juice, garlic, white wine, olive oil, salt and pepper in a blender. Transfer the puree to a small serving bowl.
• Serve the pulled pork with the mojo sauce. If desired, the pork can be served with steamed rice, black beans and maduros (plantains).

CHEESE-STUFFED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Dissolve 1/4 cup salt and the sugar in 3 cups warm water in a large bowl. Insert a paring knife into the curved side of each pork chop to make a deep pocket, about 2 inches wide. Soak the chops in the brine, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, finely chop the escarole and garlic. Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Remove the chops from the brine and pat dry. Fold each cheese slice and tuck into the pocket of a pork chop, then stuff with the escarole mixture. Brush the pork with olive oil, sprinkle with the sage and season with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork in batches, turning once, until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add the beans and 1/3 cup water to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits; season with salt and pepper. Return the pork to the skillet, cover and cook over medium heat until no longer pink, 5 to 7 more minutes. Serve the pork with the beans.

ROAST PORK HAVANA

Steps:

• Whisk together the juices, oil, spices, and sliced garlic. Now put the ham in a bag large enough to hold it and pour in the marinade. Tie up the bag. Let this marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 days and up to 4 days.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Take the pork out of the marinade and put it into a Dutch oven or roasting pan, fat-side-up. Cover and cook for 1 1/2 hours. Turn it fat-side-down, cover and cook another 1 1/2 hours. Turn the meat one last time and cook 1 hour more. Now the meat should be almost falling off the bone. If it is not, it needs more time covered in the oven.
• Turn up the heat to 375 degrees F and cook, uncovered, 30 minutes to brown.
• Now remove the roast to a cutting board and allow it to rest a few minutes.
• Pull apart the pork with 2 large forks, degrease the remaining drippings from the roasting pan and pour the jus over it. Toss and serve.

CHEESE-STUFFED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Mix green onions, bacon, Cheddar cheese, cream cheese, spinach, mushrooms, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Spread onto one side of pounded tenderloin. Roll tenderloin around the filling in a jelly-roll fashion. Coat rolled tenderloin with bread crumbs; place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pork is no longer pink in the center, about 1 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
