Ingredients

Main Ingredients (4 servings)

  • Pork Loin (approx. 500g)
  • Rosemary (1 bunch)
  • Garlic (to taste)
  • Potatoes (2 pcs, approx. 500g)

Seasonings

  • Salt and Pepper (to taste)
  • Olive Oil (to taste)

Steps

  1. Cut the connective tissue of the pork loin and pound it to a thickness suitable for rolling.
  2. Season both sides of the flattened pork loin with salt and pepper. Generously top with minced garlic and rosemary.
  3. Layer the pork loin and roll it up tightly.
  4. Tie one end of the roll with string to create a loop, then thread it through the porchetta and tighten. Continue to tie the entire roast to secure its shape.
  5. Remove the eyes from the potatoes, cut them into pieces that won't burn too easily, and rinse them in water.
  6. Drain the potatoes and toss them with salt, olive oil, and the remaining minced rosemary.
  7. Drizzle olive oil over the entire porchetta.
  8. Place the porchetta and potatoes in an oven preheated to 180°C (350°F). Roast until golden brown, flipping the porchetta halfway through and tossing the potatoes. [Chef's Tip!] Potatoes can sometimes take longer to cook than the meat. To ensure even cooking, par-boil the potatoes, drain them, and then add them to the roasting pan.
  9. Once fragrant and beautifully roasted, it's ready to serve.
