Cook succulent pork loin in creamy thyme and garlic infused milk for an Italian-style twist to your traditional family roast.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1.1kg Coles Australian Pork Loin Roast (see notes)
- 1 whole garlic bulb, cloves separated, unpeeled
- 4 thyme sprigs
- 6 shallots, halved
- 3 x 2cm-wide strips lemon rind
- 2 cups (500ml) milk, approximately
- 2 tablespoons Bulla Cooking Cream
- 2 Packham pears, cut into wedges
- Olive oil, extra, to brush
- Sage leaves, to serve
Method
- Step 1Preheat oven to 240C. Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Cook pork, turning, for 5 mins or until browned. Transfer to a baking pan with garlic, thyme, shallot and lemon rind.
- Step 2Add enough milk to the baking pan to just cover the pork, leaving the rind uncovered (you may not need all the milk at this stage). Transfer pork to oven. Roast, uncovered, for 30 mins.
- Step 3Reduce oven to 170C. Roast, topping up milk when needed, for 2 hours or until meat is tender and the rind is crisp. Transfer to a serving plate. Cover loosely with foil and set aside for 10 mins to rest.
- Step 4Meanwhile, strain milk mixture into a saucepan, pressing garlic through sieve into milk mixture. Discard solids.
- Step 5Add the cream to the milk mixture. Bring to the boil over high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 mins or until sauce thickens and reduces.
- Step 6Heat a barbecue grill or chargrill on high. Lightly brush pear wedges with a little extra oil. Cook for 2 mins each side or until lightly charred.
- Step 7Arrange the pork and pear on a serving platter. Sprinkle with sage. Cut into slices and serve with the sauce.
