En Español Recipe ↆ

This spectacular-looking Rosemary and Olives Pork Roast is very simple and requires little in the way of work or skills. A perfect dish for a weekend meal.

Why we ❤️ it

A few of our readers have commented that they are intimidated by their oven, and sometimes don't know how to use it. This  is a perfect dish to start practicing your skills, it is almost foolproof.

Originally I had no intention of sharing this in our blog, but when I saw how just nice it looked I decided to make a picture of it, at least to remember the dish later.

I ran to get my camera while my child and husband looked at me with hungry eyes, something that happens quite frequently in this home. You'd think that by now Nadia and Bo would be used to it; they aren't.

Later on I found the recipe in my notebook and decided to share it with you. If you bake the potatoes at the same time the pork is in the oven, you can take a good long break from the kitchen and just come back to serve. Perfect for a summer weekend. I love that!

Buen provecho!
