Rolled Pork Loin with Pistachio Olive Tapenade and Prosciutto
A stunning way to do a roast!
Serves:
6
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cooking Time: 1 hour
Ingredients
- 1 kg pork loin roast (without rind)
- sea salt and pepper, to taste
- smoked paprika, for sprinkling
- 6 slices prosciutto
- 200g block mozzarella
- continental parsley leaves
- 1 1/2 cups chianti red wine
- 50g butter, cut into cubes
- soft polenta or mash, for serving
- PISTACHIO OLIVE TAPENADE
- 200g stuffed green olives
- 1 clove garlic, peeled
- 1/4 cup pistachio kernels
- extra virgin olive oil, as required
Method
- Butterfly the pork loin out into a flat rectangle*, season and sprinkle with paprika, and spread with Pistachio Olive Tapenade. Top with slices of prosciutto and some parsley leaves.
- Cut mozzarella into sticks or cubes and arrange in a line along one length of the meat. Roll up to enclose, reforming into a roast shape, and secure with string or skewers. Plug the ends with a piece of foil to stop the cheese from oozing out. Rub with oil and sprinkle with paprika.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a heavy based roasting pan and brown pork on all sides. Pour over 1 cup wine. Roast at 180°C for 45 minutes or until the internal temperature of the meat is 57°C. Remove onto a carving board, cover with foil and allow to rest while making the sauce.
- Heat roasting pan on stovetop and deglaze pan juices with remaining wine. Remove from heat and stir in butter to form a thin sauce, seasoning to taste.
- Slice pork and serve over soft polenta or mash, drizzled with sauce.
- PISTACHIO OLIVE TAPENADE Blend all ingredients together to a chunky paste in a small blender.
Tips
- *To flatten out pork loin, make a deep 1cm wide cut lengthwise along one side of the meat to within 1cm of the base, ensuring not to cut all the way through. Rotate the meat as you continue to cut in the same way until you have a flat rectangular piece of meat.
- STYLING Ensure each layer of the stuffing is spread evenly over the meat before rolling.

A group of six of us attended Naomi‘s in person cooking class. We had the opportunity to choose the menu and theme prior to the experience. Each of us were involved the whole time. Throughout the session we had a chance to learn tips and tricks in the kitchen and she made us feel comfortable to ask questions. Naomi was professional, insightful and so much fun to learn from! Will definitely be booking in again!! THANKYOU Naomi!

We organised a virtual cook-a-long for our team with Naomi which was absolutely fantastic. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the session, Naomi is very engaging and has an absolute zest for inspiring others to find their finesse is the kitchen.

I enjoy Naomi's online cooking classes immensely. The classes are well-organised with all relevant information sent in advance so that the cook-along runs smoothly. Naomi is an engaging teacher and generously shares her knowledge and skill with the class; her recipes are easy to master and . many of them have become family favourites in my home.

I was fortunate enough to enjoy a few hours cooking with Naomi and some friends (virtually) last Sunday. What a delightful way to spend a few hours pulling together a delicious meal. Naomi made the whole experience so easy from booking, organising ingredients right through to putting the meal on the table. I loved hearing about her experiences of both the food we were cooking (Moroccan chicken) but also the places she had been. Oh and my family- being the beneficiary of a new take on Sunday night dinner were happy too. I would highly recommend this experience.

Naomi’s Cook-Along sessions are always fun and extremely informative. Ask Naomi anything about ingredients, food and wine and she will impart a world of wisdom. Not to mention the dish made in just an hour - so delicious and such a breeze online in the session. Thanks Naomi 😊

Naomi’s cooking classes are such fun plus they are improving my cooking skills. All the meals I have prepared with the classes are so flavoursome and have appealed to all the family (including a fussy teenager). All are on my ‘will make again’ list. I particularly like the extra little tips we get from Naomi – these tips are what helps a good cook become a great cook. Thanks Naomi

I've completed several of Naomi's Cookalong sessions and always learn new tips. The sessions are fun and we accomplish a delicious meal in 1 1/2 hours. Looking forward to more sessions.

Hats off to Naomi, she has absolutely mastered the presentation of her easy and delicious recipes in her classes on zoom.This was our first zoom class and we were really impressed. Naomi gave an immersive experience, enthusiastically sharing her knowledge and tips along the way and at the end of the class, we had a finished impressive meal, ready to sit down and enjoy.Naomi’s classes are a fab way to prepare your evening meal in a social environment and all while increasing your confidence and prowess in the kitchen. Now that’s an absolute win in our book.Thank you Naomi. You’ll be seeing us again in your Zoom kitchen. :)

Who would have thought Thursday nights would become a highlight of the week! These cooking classes are great fun and set an easy pace. You start at 6pm, relax with a wine with a great group while things bubble away, and you'll have a fab dinner on the table by 7pm - and it really will look amazing as Naomi also shows how to present things beautifully. I thought I'd have to do a lot of prep before the classes as I'm a slow cook, but it's not the case. You really do cook along easily in the hour and can ask for tips and questions all along the way. I've loved learning everything from restaurant style duck to Persian rice pilaf. I also highly recommend the leisurely Sunday slow cooks - you'll have a beautiful Sunday lunch and pro tips for leftovers. Think slow roast Greek lamb, then souvlaki with the leftovers and you know you'll be happy!

Cooking can sometimes be a chore for me but Naomi's cook-along classes have been so much fun! With her guidance I was able to whip up delightful meals that I normally wouldn’t have attempted, ready right in time for dinner – AND enjoyed by all the family!I found it was easy to multi-task when listening to voice instructions during the classes and being able to glance over at the screen at any time allowed me to visually check that I was on track. It was also reassuring having Naomi there ‘live’ in my kitchen to answer any questions along the way.Looking forward to the next Thursday night cook-along!!!

Thanks Naomi for another great, fun Cook-Along session last night. We always look forward to our Thursday night Foodcentric Cook-Alongs. The Moroccan Lamb Tagine was absolutely scrumptious and even had leftovers for today 😋 Looking forward to next week session - Surprise Mozzarella Meatballs & Brie & Garlic Bread. 😊

Best $20 ever invested in myself. This was my first on line zoom class, I was not sure what to expect. I found myself completely immersed in the experience. Fantastic collegiate experience, lovely to meet others over zoom and such fun!. Really helpful to be cooking with an expert. I learnt simple ways of tweaking dishes, so helpful! The class was structured and very easy to follow and to be honest it made cooking this family meal effortless. I was sad when the hour was up but very proud of what I created. I am a convert now! Naomi was very generous and thoughtful in the way she provided a shopping list before hand and the menu. Perfect for people who love to cook, want to learn more skills. For those who can't get out this online format provides some great social engagement and something to look forward to. Just do it!

Cooking classes with Naomi are fun, relaxed and educational! My favourite part of these classes, is I'm cooking from my own kitchen (don't go anywhere!), and I get to eat dinner with my family straight after the 1 hour session is done at 7pm. They're affordable and something to look forward to each week. Thanks Naomi!
