Pork fillet wrapped in prosciutto

For those of you who don’t know, the pork fillet cut is actually the equivalent to the beef fillet or tenderloin. It’s the leanest and tenderest cut of meat. Note, however, it’s also very easy to overcook and become dry and chewy.

This is where the pork fillet come from.

So, on to making this lovely meat dish…


1. Prepare the pork fillet

You should be able to get the whole pork fillet from your local butcher, or even your main supermarket. It’s quite a common cut. If not readily available, however, your local butcher will definitely be able to order one within a day or two.

The first thing to do is to check there is no outstanding sinew on the fillet. This is a thin white layer of gristle and should be removed. Normally, this will already be cut off but just check and trim and bits you see.

2. Prepare the prosciutto

You will be rolling a layer of the prosciutto around the whole fillet. To do this, lay a piece of kitchen film larger than the fillet on your work surface and lay the prosciutto over the film to the same width as the fillet.

Lay the prosciutto over the cling film

Overlap the prosciutto so there are no gaps. If you end up having some prosciutto left over just eat it. It’s fantastic!!

3. Prepare and roll the pork fillet

Take the pork fillet and season with Maldons sea salt and black pepper all over. Then lay it on the prosciutto.

You could roll it just like this but I smothered mine with Dijon Mustard. You could use English or grain mustard if you prefer. Or even be fancy and make a mushroom duxelles! More on that in another post.

Once the mustard is added simply roll the film with the prosciutto around the pork.

Wrap the pork fillet in the prosciutto

If you have time, leave in the in the fridge for an hour but you don’t have to. The only advantage is that the chilling will make the prosciutto stick to the pork and be easier when you remove the film. Either way, remove the film when ready to cook and lay on a roasting tray.

4. Roast and serve the fillet of pork

Place the pork in a pre-heated oven 200C / 180C Fan and roast for 18 minutes. Then check the centre of the thickest part of the pork with a cooking thermometer. Providing the temperature is above 63C the pork is cooked. If cooler than this leave in the oven for another 5 minutes and check again.

Once roasted, leave the pork fillet to rest for 10 minutes and then slice and serve. I served ours with a garnish of watercress and a romantic tomato rose.
