Directions
- To prepare the pork loin roast first of all you need to wrap the bacon around the pork loin and tie it up with butcher’s twine in order to keep the shape intact as it cooks. Then stick the rosemary sprig in between the twine and the meat.
- Warm up the olive oil in a skillet along with the garlic clove (without peeling it).
- Add the pork loin and let it sear for 3-4 minutes on each side over medium heat, this way it should turn slightly brown on the outside.
- Add salt and pepper. Then add the white wine and simmer until reduced.
- The pork loin should brown for a total of 18-20 minutes.
- After that remove the pork loin from the skillet and put it aside.
Save also the pan juice for later (remember to remove the garlic clove).
- In the meanwhile thoroughly wash the potatoes, cut them in half and then slice them into wedges without peeling them.
- Finally spread the wedges out on a baking tray and season with extra virgin olive oil, salt and pepper.
