I wish we could get leg of pork here, Ann ~ The stores just don't seem to offer it, but I may place a special order because your slow roasted version looks so good.
Yes, Leg of Pork and Fresh Ham are the same. We called it fresh ham when I was growing up. If you can get one with the skin still on then you will also have "cracklins". Sooo Soooo good. I have another recipe for a fresh ham that I've been making for almost 20 years. It is out of a 1990 Gourmet Magazine. I'll try to remember to post it this week.
I more like pork curry. But my kids don't like this. And also pork is not suitable in this blistering summer. I plan to make it for my family and give them a surprise in the monsoon.
Served with Sweet Potatoes mashed with caramelized onions, green beans and potato gratin. I think that Pork makes the best gravy.
Be still my heart!

I agree, Pork makes the best gravy!!! Love the look of this dish...warm, comforting and homely!!!
ReplyDeleteYou've got me hungry for a pork roast, Ann. That looks amazing. And I'm dying to try the sweet potatoes with caramelized onions. That sounds TDF!! :)
