As I mentioned before the weather today was a real autumny day with rain and wind. So we decided to have a roast for dinner. We wanted to have brussel sprouts with it but we forgot to by them and we are extremely lazy so we didn't want to go the whole 500 metres to the supermarket. However, pork roast need some kind of cabbage as a side dish and we had red cabbage at home. So braised red cabbage is what we had. Pork recipe is taken from http://paleoparents.com and the cabbage recipe we found at http://recipes.sparkpeople.com. We served it with roasted sweet potato and pumpkin and made a jus with the pork juices.
Ingredients
about 2 kilos of pork roast
4 garlic cloves
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 tsp onion powder
½ tsp cayenne pepper
½ red cabbage head, thinly sliced
2 tbsp butter
80 ml balsamic vinegar
2 pinches of stevia
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 175 degrees Celsius. Combine the garlic, salt, pepper, onion powder and cayenne, then rub the mixture over all the sides of the roast. Put on an oven tray and roast in the oven for about 90 minutes, or until 73 degrees inside the meat using a meat thermometer. Take out and let it rest for about 10 minutes
Melt the butter in a pot on medium heat. Add the cabbage and sauté for about 5 minutes. Add the stevia and toss until completely mixed. Add the balsamic vinegar and turn the heat down to medium-low and cook covered for about 30 minutes. Make sure you stir it every 10 minutes so that it doesn't get burnt or stuck. Season with salt and pepper.
