Mortadella-Stuffed Pork Loin with Rosemary Roasted PotatoesRichard Gerhard Jung

Lombo di Maiale Ripieno di Mortadella con Patate Arrosto

This dish was inspired by a truffled mortadella we tasted in Rome. Good-quality mortadella can be found at butcher shops, at Italian markets, and even in the deli section of many supermarkets.

Active time: 1 hr Start to finish: 1 1/4 hr

Cooks' note:

• Pork can be butterflied and stuffed 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature before proceeding. *Available at some specialty foods shops and D'Artagnan (800-327-8246).
