Russian Mushroom Julienne Ingredients :

  • 2 ¼ pounds bone-in pork loin chops
  • 3 tomatoes, sliced
  • 2 onions, sliced
  • ¾ cup shredded Gouda cheese
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard

How To Make Russian Mushroom Julienne

1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

2

Cut the pork loin chops into 1/4-inch slices lengthwise, leaving them connected at the bottom so they can open up like a book. Fill the slices with tomatoes, onions, and Gouda cheese.

3

In a bowl, combine crushed garlic with salt, then mix in mustard and pepper. Spread this mixture evenly over the pork. Press the slices together firmly and wrap the pork in aluminum foil.

4

Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. Unwrap and continue baking until the pork is nicely browned, about 30 minutes longer.

Recipe Notes: 

Garlic Infusion: Prick the roast and tuck slivers of garlic deep into the meat to evenly disperse flavor.

Spice Rub: Use a bold blend of aromatic spices and chopped herbs to coat the roast thoroughly for maximum flavor penetration.

Slow Roasting: Roast slowly to ensure the meat becomes tender while the exterior achieves a satisfying crisp.

Rest Before Serving: Let the roast rest after cooking—this helps the juices redistribute and improves slicing.

Serving Suggestions: Serve slices of roast warm alongside roasted vegetables, creamy mashed potatoes, or hearty holiday sides.
