Ingredients for 8 servings

a piece of fresh pork breast 2 kg to 2.5 kg
4 cloves
2 garlic cloves, deveined and cut into sticks
salt and freshly ground pepper

Step-by-step directions

1- Remove the rind from the breast, keeping as much fat as possible. Flatten the meat so it is somewhat thinner, easier to roll, then, prick two cloves and sprinkle with a little thyme flowers on both sides of the meat ; insert garlic pieces between the cloves also on both sides.

2- Salt and pepper. Roll the piece of breast, fat on the outside, to form a roast. Tie it well.

3- Place this roast in an oven-safe dish without any fat.

4- Cook in a low oven (140°) for about four hours, regularly basting with the cooking juices. The fat melts and forms a crust around the meat, keeping the meat very tender.

5- Once the roast is cooked, slice and serve hot.
It will be even better the next day cold with a green salad.

Chef Patrick's Comment

Interesting recipe because it is flavorful and moreover within everyone's budget. Served hot, you can serve this roast with mashed potatoes into which you have incorporated 1/3 onion puree Roscoff type (excellent). Served cold, with a mixed vegetable salad bound with a little mustard mayonnaise.
