     Interested in an Irish dish not so famous as others you typically see in an American Irish Bar served specifically on St. Patty's Day? Well try this simple yet full flavored pork dish that will have you coming back for more. Irish Creamy Pork Roast.


Ingredients:


  • 1-2 lb pork tenderloin
  • 3 shallots
  • 5 juniper berries
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • 2/3 cup hard cider
  • 2/3 cup chicken stock
  • 4 celery stalks chopped
  • 2 tbs flour
  • 2/3 cup heavy cream
  • Olive oil
  • 3 tbs butter
  • Salt/pepper


1. In a large skillet melt  1 1/2 tbs butter and add olive oil. Place in the pork tenderloin and brown on all sides roughly 8 minutes.

2. Remove pork and sit aside. Toss in the shallots and cook until tender. Add in the juniper berries, thyme, and return the pork to the pan. Pour in the cider and chicken stock. Cover and simmer for roughly 30 minutes. Add in the chopped celery and continue to cover and cook.

3. Make a past using rest of butter and flour. Remove pork from skillet and place on a plate. Remove the juniper berries and discard. Mix in the paste and cream until thickness begins. Simmer on low for about 2 minutes until the sauce becomes a perfect thick texture. Slice the pork into medallions and serve with the sauce spooned over. 

    This pork dish was fantastic. Full of flavor and pretty easy to make. Shows just how simple but amazing Irish cooking is. Serve with a side of potatoes and some mushy peas.
