SERVES 6
Ingredients
- 4 pound bone-in pork roast
- 4 cloves garlic
- 4 large sprigs fresh rosemary
- Extra Virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 cups dry white wine
- 6 large baking potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- Ingredients
Directions
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Make some deep 1-inch slits all over the meat.
- Mince the garlic and the needles from two sprigs of the rosemary together and mix with the salt and pepper to make a paste. Push the paste into the slits of the meat. Place the remaining whole sprigs on top of the roast and tie it in place with string. Set aside.
- Heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a large roasting pan on top of the stove and when it is hot, brown the meat on all sides. Add the wine and allow most of it to evaporate.
- Tuck the potato chunks around the meat and roast in the oven for 20 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to 400°F and continue roasting until a meat thermometer registers 165°F. Baste the meat occasionally with any pan juices.
- When cooked, allow the meat to rest for 15 minutes, loosely covered with aluminum foil before cutting into serving pieces. Serve with potatoes and any pan juices.
