Today I want to share with you a very typical dish from my homeland. Pork is an important food in our kitchen, especially in the mountains. Were the shepherds camerano which brought him Estremadura since the killing livelihood depended for most of the year. And according to some sources tell the Virgin of Orio loins the miracle of providing the best products to beeches and oaks of the region to ensure an excellent food for the animals after being popularized in one of the tastiest dishes of our cuisine, the well-known potatoes with chorizo. So important is the cold cuts industry in the Sierra de Cameros that even today retain some traditions are closely linked to it. According to legend in 1520, during the War of the Communities, nomadic shepherds who had returned to their lands Camerana from Extremadura were attacked by a band of villagers who tried to steal their cattle. No means by which to defend themselves on equal terms, the shepherds were lost and who prayed to the Virgin to protect them. In exchange for her favors pledged that every man who had more than sixty head of cattle turned over to the Virgin of Orio a lamb loins for its meat was distributed among the poor. According to legend once held the vote, the fog covered the shepherds, clueless and the commoners. Since then, every year in the chapel of steaks Orio held a procession on the first Sunday of July to comply with the rite of "big love", joining thousands of people across La Rioja. For decades, the donation of the meat is done by descendants of emigrants from Villoslada Cameros who went to Argentina, Chile or Mexico, gratitude for his good fortune. And for our own good fortune today to enjoy these dishes. Hope you like. They are delicious.
INGREDIENTS pork chops
12 of about 150 grs., 12 roasted red peppers (or canned), 1 / 2 l. homemade tomato sauce, 6 cloves garlic, sugar, oil, parsley and salt.
is best to start preparing eve, putting the meat marinated in a paste of olive oil, garlic and parsley (to taste) and letting it marinate in the refrigerator overnight to wet out of spices. Even if we hurry a couple of hours will suffice. It is best to use for developing kidney chops that although they are more juicy look worse. Where should we go to fry them a couple of cuts on the fat part not to shrink when put in fire. Then, toss in the pan with hot oil and fry on both sides. When chips are seasoned and removed (the meat is always seasoned after sealing the juices do not lose). In the same oil fry the garlic and when they start to brown add the peppers are roasted, cut into strips. Sprinkle a little sugar (as if we were to salar), lowered the heat and left idle for a couple of minutes. Then in the source you're going to serve it put a small bed of homemade tomato sauce (I do it just with tomato, olive oil and garlic for 25 minutes.) On it we put our chops, cover with remaining sauce and peppers. We put in the oven and let cook at 180 ยบ C for 5 minutes. If we did them in a pot would not be necessary to put in the oven but just cook the whole for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
