Wow your family with delicious Tuscan pork rolls
Not sure what to make for dinner tonight? The beauty of this recipe lies in its simplicity. You start with a succulent pork fillet, seasoned and seared to lock in those delicious juices. Fresh herbs and Dijon mustard form a flavour-packed crust around the meat, which is then tucked snugly inside a hollowed-out baguette. Roasted garlic, softened to a buttery consistency, adds depth, while a final sprinkle of Parmesan provides a golden, cheesy finish. After a short bake, you're left with a dish that's as stunning as it is tasty. The pork stays juicy inside its crispy bread shell, while the herbs and garlic work together to create a mouthwatering aroma. Recipe compliments of SA Pork. Ingredients 1 large baguette 500-800g pork fillet 2 tablespoons fresh sage, finely chopped 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped 1/4 cup Dijon or regular English mustard Salt and pepper to taste For the roasted garlic 2 whole garlic bulbs 1/2 cup olive oil 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese Method Preheat the oven to 165 degrees Celsius. Prepare the pork fillet by seasoning it with salt and pepper. Heat a griddle pan until very hot, sear the pork on all sides to seal in the juices, and add colour for about 2 minutes per side. While the pork is searing, prepare the garlic confit. Separate the garlic bulbs into cloves (no need to peel) and place in a small saucepan with the oil. Simmer gently over low heat for 10-15 minutes until the garlic becomes soft and jammy. Cut the baguette in half lengthwise and hollow out the centre to create a channel for the pork. Brush the inside with some garlic oil and spread the softened garlic cloves along the base. Once the pork is seared, remove from the heat and coat evenly with Dijon mustard. Roll the mustard-coated pork in the chopped herbs, pressing gently to adhere. Place the herb-crusted pork inside the hollowed baguette and close the top half. Secure with kitchen twine at 2-inch intervals along the length of the baguette. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes. For larger fillets, you may need to increase the cooking time to ensure the pork reaches an internal temperature of 63 degrees Celsius. Five minutes before the end of cooking time, sprinkle the top of the baguette with grated Parmesan cheese and return to the oven to melt. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before removing the string and slicing it into thick portions.

US ‘gold card' fails to lure rich Chinese, Shenzhen exports decline: SCMP daily highlights
Catch up on some of SCMP's biggest China stories of the day. If you would like to see more of our reporting, please consider subscribing Three months after he first floated the idea, Trump's gold card scheme appears to have fallen flat with China's wealthy, who were expected to be one of the biggest sources of demand for the controversial new visa. China's top exporting city saw its levels fall in April despite stronger-than-expected national growth, suggesting traders are not yet out of the woods amid tumultuous tariff tensions with the US. China has long been a key export market for US farmers, with America exporting more than US$12.8 billion of soybeans to the country last year. Photo: AP China's imports of American soybeans and pork plunged to zero in early May and have yet to recover despite the US-China tariff truce, suggesting the trade war may have done lasting damage to a key US export trade.
