Roast Loin Of Pork With Crispy Crackling And Cider Gravy Recipe

Roast Loin Of Pork With Crispy Crackling And Cider Gravy

From misslionheart 17 years ago

My Chef husband is passionate about his meat. He thoroughly enjoyed this recipe, especially the onions!

Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
When you're ready to cook the pork, rub a little oil over the skin and then rub in a generous amount of sea salt on top of the skin and into the score lines.
Cut the onions in half and sit in a roasting tray cut-side up with a trickle of oil. Place the pork on top and cook for 20 minutes before reducing the heat to 180C/350F/Gas 4 and cooking for a further 1 hour 20 minutes. There is no need to baste the pork during cooking as the skin does the job for you, keeping the meat moist as it becomes crisp.
When the pork is cooked, remove from the tray and sit on a plate in a warm place to rest. Remove the onions from the tray and keep warm with the pork, then pour out any excess fat. Put the tray over a medium heat and stir the flour vigorously into the meat juices. Slowly add the mustard, cider and vegetable stock and cook for about 3-4 minutes until thickened slightly. Finally add the cream, if using, and season with salt and pepper.
Remove the crackling from the pork and break into pieces. Thickly slice the pork and serve with the onions and gravy

OH, I sat up & took a few looks at THIS one!! YUMMY!! It's getting harder and harder to get a piece of good meat over here, and one with lots of fat on it, but i have a butcher who is a sweatheart :) And, we can get Double Cream now (used to have to use 35% MF whipping cream, or mascarpone instead)...
GREAT post, MissLH :) Thanks!
