Roast pork with Figs Onions and Marsala
Ingredients
- 2 lbs pork tenderloin
- 12 black figs, dried, approximately
- 1 cup marsala wine, (with a drap of Honey) or 1 cup dark port wine
- 12 cup boiling onions
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 1 12 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper, ground
- 34 teaspoon allspice
- 1 tablespoon sweet butter, (optional)
Directions
Soak the Figs in the Marsala at least an hour.Put the Boiler Onions in warm water 20 min, skin cut off the root and stem,cut a X in the bottom.
Mix 1 TBS Oil, Salt, Pepper,& Allspice then rub the Pork let it stand half an hour.
Sear the rubbed pork in the rest of the oil.
Put everything but the butter in a coverable roasting pan.
Roast covered at 325F for an hour.
Uncover, drop the oven to 275F and continue roasting to an internal temp of 145F.
If you want a higher temp for safety do so but I feel 145F plus the 5+ rise after removal is sufficient.
Remove the meat to a plate.
Remove the most solid of the Figs and onions.
Put the liquid in a pot and degrease, I use paper towels.
Chech the seasoning.
Whisk in the butter to the hot liquid, I use my hand blender.
Slice and enjoy, figs and onions on the side.
