Blue Cheese Stuffed Pork Loin

Blue Cheese Stuffed Pork Loin

Loin is one of the leanest cuts of Pork and has a bit of a tendency to dry out when roasted. But not if you stuff it! Also we’re more than happy to throw a few bits and bobs from the fridge at it if it’s wearing a yellow sticker….

Ingredients:-

Two tbsp Creme Fraiche
An Onion, finely chopped
Blue Stilton, crumbled
Garlic, minced
Mushrooms, finely sliced
Margarine
Fresh Parsley, chopped
DIY Garlic Butter (Margarine here)
Salt & Pepper

Method:-

(1) Sautee the Onion and Garlic in the Margarine until softened.
(2) Add the Mushrooms.
(3) Add the Parsley.
(4) Stir in the Creme Fraiche
(5) Season with Salt & Pepper.
(6) Simmer to reduce for 10 minutes.
(7) Put pockets in the Pork Loin.
(8) Spread the sauce in the pockets and add crumbled Blue Cheese.
(9) Rub Garlic Butter over the rind.
(10) Roast in a pre-heated oven at 180c for 40 minutes or until it’s cooked and the sauce is oozing out.

We served ours with roast Potatoes, Parsnips, Peas & Carrots, Yorkshire Puddings and lots of gravy.

Lemon Garlic Chicken recipe

The legs and wings were from a yellow sticker Chicken I butchered a while ago and froze. The mysterious nugget things are actually some Courgettes we’d peeled for a previous recipe we had in the fridge and some left over batter we made the day before for Tokneneng (battered Eggs!) Left overs don’t go to waste here…...

Ingredients:-

Chicken legs and wings
Garlic Powder
Zest of a Lemon
Lightly crushed Black Peppercorns
Seasoned self raising Flour (Gluten free for us)
Olive Oil
Salt

Method:-

(1) Marinate the Chicken portions in the Oil, Garlic Powder, Black Peppercorns and Lemon Zest.
(2) Roll in the seasoned Flour to coat all sides.
(3) Fry on all sides until browned and set aside.
(4) Heat a fryer to 170c.
(5) Deep fry in batches and drain. You are looking for 75c or above near the bone if you have a food probe. If not lift from the oil on stab with a skewer, if the juices run clear you’re good.

We served ours in large home made Gluten free Yorkshire puddings with boiled spuds and stir-fried vegetables. Not quite a Sunday roast, but near enough!
