In my recipe book, The Complete Spanish Cookbook, by Jacki Passmore, there is a recipe for LOMO DE CERDA, Loin of Pork. It is a substantial tapa, or snack which is served in a small pottery dish with a sliced roll to mop up the juices. Here is the recipe she gives:
Ingredients:
1/2 lb pork tenderloin, butt or shoulder
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 small carrot, sliced
1 small onion, sliced
4 bay leaves
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 large tomatoes, peeled and chopped
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Directions:
1. Remove the rind from the pork(if there is one) Brown the pork in the olive oil, then brown the carrot and onion.
2. Place in a saucepan with the bay leaves, garlic, tomatoes, peppercorns and rosemary.
3. Add water to cover and simmer for 1 1/2 hours, adding the vinegar in the final few minutes of cooking.
4. Lift out and thinly slice the pork.
5. Place in a dish with the vegetables and sauce to cover.
