Lonza di maiale arrosto
La nostra ricetta vi guida passo passo nella preparazione di una succulenta lonza di maiale arrosto. Si comincia asciugando la cotenna del pezzo di carne e lasciandolo arrivare a temperatura ambiente, prima di ricoprirlo con olio d’oliva e condirlo. La lonza viene poi arrostita in forno preriscaldato e lasciata riposare prima di essere servita. Il risultato è una lonza di maiale cotta alla perfezione con uno strato croccante di cotenna. Questo piatto farà una gran figura a qualsiasi tavola. Accompagnatelo con vari contorni da arrosto, come purè di carote e rutabaga, ripieno, patate arrosto, pastinache arrosto al miele e salsa d’arrosto.
Ingredienti
- 2 kg Pork Loin Joint
- Salt and Black Pepper
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
Preparazione
- 1
Packaging: For crispy crackling, buy a pork loin joint with the skin still attached. The roasting joint seen in this recipe card only has a fat layer, which gives a softer (still tasty) crackling.Open the 2 kg Pork Loin Joint packaging a few hours or the day before. Pat it dry and place it uncovered in the fridge for the skin/fat layer to dry.

Room Temp: Remove from the fridge 30 minutes to 1 hour before cooking to bring to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 210℃ fan / 230℃ / 450℉ or gas mark 8

Score: *Check if the butcher has already scored your pork roasting joint.If not, use a sharp knife to carefully score the layer of skin and fat on the joint, making deep incisions about a finger's width apart. Be careful not to cut into the pork meat underneath.

Oil: Rub 1 tbsp Olive Oil over the scored skin layer.

Season: Take generous pinches of Salt and Black Pepper and sprinkle them liberally over the skin and between the scores.
- 6
Rack: Place the joint on a roasting rack, inside a baking tray, skin side up. This allows heat to circulate the pork loin for even cooking and prevents it from sitting in the fat that drains off the top.*If you don't have a roasting rack, create a makeshift one using vegetables. Arrange a layer of chunky cut root vegetables like carrots and onions to place the pork on to.

High Heat: Position the tray in the middle of your preheated oven and roast at a high temperature of 230℃/ 210℃ fan / 450℉ or gas mark 8 for the first 30 minutes.

Low Heat: After the initial 30 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 180℃/ 160℃ fan / 350℉/gas mark 4 and continue cooking according to the size of your joint:1 kg -1 hour1.5 kg - 1 hour 30 min2 kg - 2 hours2.5 kg - 2 hours 30 min
