Flavorful main course: pork loin with beer in a pressure cooker.
In short, a dish full of flavor, economical, and quick. Thanks to the pressure cooker it cooks in just 15 minutes from the whistle. The meat turns out very tender without losing all the nutritional properties as it happens with traditional cooking. Moreover, the combination with prunes, as with apples, is a guaranteed success!
So, after having posted a long time ago, the skewers with prunes and speck, which were really successful, I leave you with this version of roast which I’m sure you will truly appreciate.
