Cook Time

3 hr

Ingredients

1 Longo’s Fresh Porchetta Pork Roast (1.8 to 2.2kg)

1 1/2 cups Longo’s Essentials Low

Sodium Vegetable Broth, divided

1/4 cup Longo’s Curato Apulian

“Bomba” Hot Cream Mixed Vegetables (plus extra to serve)

1kg fresh Brussels sprouts

(about 8 cups), trimmed and halved

1 large red bell pepper, roughly chopped

Directions

Arrange porchetta on small rack in centre of large roasting pan. Whisk 2 tbsp of the vegetable broth with the bomba and brush thickly all over the porchetta. Pour remaining broth into roasting pan. Cover roasting pan loosely with foil and roast porchetta in preheated 350°F oven for 2 hours. Meanwhile, combine Brussels sprouts, red pepper, onion and garlic in large bowl; drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper, tossing to coat. Add vegetables to the roasting pan, surrounding porchetta and nestling into the pan liquids. Roast, uncovered, stirring vegetables and turning roast occasionally for even browning, for 1 to 1 1/2 hours longer or until an instant read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork registers 165°F. (Vegetables can be removed from the pan using a slotted spoon to a serving bowl to hold warm, once cooked to preferred doneness.) Rest pork for 20 minutes before carving thinly and serving with vegetables on a platter. Drizzle meat with pan liquids and serve with extra bomba on the side.

A Dash of Advice

If you don’t have a small rack to fit your roasting pan, you can make one by overlapping carrots or celery stalks to make a trivet. If you enjoy crispy skin on your roast, remove the netting (which tends to stick after roasting) and retie loosely with kitchen twine before roasting. Be sure to rotate the porchetta during roasting to ensure even browning.
