Let's Get Cooking
- 1 First, you need to season the porkloin with Knorr Liquid Seasoning and pepper. Next, lay the pork loin on a chopping board and spread half of the pesto sauce evenly on one side and then sprinkle the top with chopped almonds.
- 2 You now have to gently roll the loin into a log, then seal and secure it with butcher’s twine by tying knots on both ends.
- 3 Give the loin a nice breading layer by first coating it in flour. After, dip it in beaten eggs and finally roll it in a mixture of half pesto and breadcrumbs.
- 4 Cook the porkloin by deep frying it in oil set at low-medium heat or bake in a 375 F oven for 30-45 minutes. Wait for it to cook and then you are done!
- 5 Something as beautiful and delicious as this dish should not just be reserved for special occasions. As long as you’re with family, no matter what the time, there’s always something to celebrate.
