How to prepare Milk Pork Roast
Peel the carrot and cut it into small cubes. Clean the onion and cut it into cubes as well. Wash the celery stalk and dice it. Place the vegetables in a pressure cooker. Add the olive oil and the pork loin. Let the vegetables sauté and the meat brown over medium heat for 4-5 minutes.
Pour the milk over the meat covering almost all the loin. Add a pinch of salt and 4-5 bay leaves. Close the pressure cooker and wait for the characteristic whistle over medium heat. Lower the heat and let the Roast cook for about 40 minutes from the whistle.
If you don’t have a pressure cooker or don’t want to use it, use a pot and proceed in the same way. After adding the milk, let it heat up, lower the heat, and let it cook for about 90 minutes.
At the end of cooking, transfer the meat to a cutting board. Blend the cooking juices. Serve the Pork Roast sliced more or less thinly, as you prefer, accompanied by the sauce.

If you prepare the Milk Roast in advance, keep it warm in a covered pot or simply heat it in the microwave or for a few minutes in the hot oven.
You can also heat the sauce in a saucepan or microwave and then transfer it to a sauceboat.
