Cut the pork roast into pieces and fry it in a pan until it’s crispy and fragrant.
Meanwhile, bring salted water to a boil and cook the pasta (like penne, rigatoni, or spaghetti) al dente. Drain it, reserving some cooking water.
Add the pasta to the pan with the pork roast and mix for a few minutes over medium heat. Pour in some cooking water to make the dish creamy.
Incorporate grated pecorino and continue to sauté until the pasta is well blended and creamy.
Distribute the pasta on plates, add a little more grated pecorino, and some crispy pork roast pieces on top.
The result is a flavorful and quick pasta with pork roast and pecorino, perfect for using up leftover pork roast!
Advice & Storage:
Al dente pasta maintains its texture better during blending with pecorino.
You can enrich the dish with a pinch of fresh black pepper or a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
Pasta with pork roast is best consumed immediately but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 day in an airtight container.
If you want to prepare it in advance, store the pork roast and pasta separately, so you can reheat and blend them when ready to preserve crunchiness and flavor.
Do not freeze the already seasoned pasta, as the texture of the pork roast and pasta may get ruined.
