- 1unit de Pork loin roast
- All-purpose seasoning blend (e.g., salt, pepper, garlic powder mix)
- Olive oil
- Kitchen twineSubstitui por: fio dental
- Pre-made savory toasted cassava flour (Farofa)
Instructions
Using a sharp knife, carefully butterfly the pork loin open into a flat sheet, making longitudinal internal cuts so the meat unfolds, but avoid cutting all the way to the edges.
Dica: Be very careful in this step not to damage the cut of the meat.
Brush olive oil on both sides of the opened loin. It is important to leave the fat cap intact to prevent the meat from drying out during cooking.
Dica: The olive oil helps the seasoning adhere and keeps the meat moist.
Season the inside surface of the loin with a light sprinkle of the all-purpose seasoning blend.
Dica: Use very little seasoning inside, as the stuffing mixture is already seasoned.
Spread the savory toasted cassava flour stuffing over the inner surface of the loin, concentrating the filling in the center area to facilitate closing.
Dica: Do not overstuff with the toasted cassava flour mixture to ensure you can close the loin properly.
Roll up the loin, pressing lightly on the stuffing so it settles and stays inside the meat.
Dica: Try to roll it in a way that keeps the filling centralized, using your hands to gently guide the process.
Tie the rolled loin tightly with kitchen twine, making sure the ends are secured with a firm knot, but without tearing the meat.
Dica: A firm knot is essential to maintain the structure during cooking.
Season the outside surface of the tied loin with a bit more of the all-purpose seasoning blend.
Dica: It is recommended to season the loin externally only after it's ready or just before roasting, as salting too early can dry out the meat.
Roast the loin on the grill or in a conventional oven. If using the oven, place it in a roasting pan covered with aluminum foil for approximately 1 hour to 1 hour and a half.
Dica: After the initial covered time, remove the aluminum foil and let it roast for another 30 minutes to brown the meat.
After cooking, remove the kitchen twine and slice the loin to serve.
Dica: The meat should be extremely tender and falling apart.
