Savor the Aromas: Rosemary Lavender Roasted Pork Recipe

Making Aromatic Rosemary and Lavender Infused Roasted Pork

Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that’s perfect for a cozy night in or a special dinner with loved ones. This aromatic rosemary and lavender-infused roasted pork dish will fill your kitchen with delightful scents and tantalize your taste buds with a unique blend of flavors.

Ingredients:

• pork loin (850g)
• fresh rosemary (20g)
• dried lavender (10g)
• honey (30ml)
• olive oil (45ml)
• garlic cloves (4)
• sea salt (10g)
• black pepper (5g)

Kitchen Tools:

• oven
• roasting pan
• chef’s knife
• cutting board
• food processor
• measuring spoons

First, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the pork loin in a roasting pan and set aside. In a food processor, combine the fresh rosemary, dried lavender, honey, olive oil, garlic cloves, sea salt, and black pepper. Pulse until a fragrant herb paste forms.

Using a sharp knife, make several deep cuts into the pork loin. Rub the herb paste all over the pork, making sure to get it into the cuts for maximum flavor infusion.

Once the pork is well coated, place the roasting pan in the preheated oven. Roast for about 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). The pork should be golden and aromatic.

Remove the roasted pork from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute for a moist and tender result. Slice the pork loin into thick pieces and serve hot.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1000g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 250g. An estimate puts the calorie count per serving at 350 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to mix any leftover herb paste with a bit of melted butter and drizzle it over the sliced pork just before serving. This extra burst of flavor will elevate the dish and impress your guests.
