Rolled Pork Loin With Prosciutto & Caramelised Pears
Make on Fresco
Get some pork on your fork people. This is very impressive to look at, delicious to eat and you can call it sous vide in any machine, no need for the TM6 to get this happening. You do however need a Stasher Bag, which I no longer sell as they are literally available in all good kitchen supply stores. (I am thinking Kitchen Warehouse people, such a GREAT store...go prepared to spend some $!)
This method could totally be duplicated with chicken...or a flat piece of beef or lamb to be honest. You are welcome! (Aren't you glad you are an Insider?? I mean, really?)

Meanwhile, butterfly pork fillet and spread filling evenly across the pork. Roll up and place into a Stasher Bag. Seal Stasher Bag and place into the Varoma, add 500g water to the Thermomix bowl and steam pork 20 min/100ºC/speed 3.

Allow pork to cool enough to handle (it will not be completely cooked through at this stage), wrap in prosciutto and place on top of par-roasted veggies and pear mix.

Bake 15-20 minutes until golden and cooked through. Serve sliced with the roasted veggies and pears.

Christmix Tip: If you do not have a Stasher Bag, you can purchase one from good kitchen stores or you can alternatively roll the pork fillet once stuffed in aluminum foil. It needs to be tightly rolled or the filling will just come out during steaming.
