Juicy baked pork rack: the perfect dish for a festive table

A recipe for juicy baked pork rack in the oven, which will be perfect for a festive table.

Ingredients:

- Pork rack - 1.5-2 kg;

- Balsamic cream - 3 tbsp;

- Olive oil - 2 tbsp;

- Rosemary - 2 sprigs (or 1 tsp dried);

- Paprika - 1 tsp;

- Salt, pepper - to taste.

Step-by-step recipe:

1. Preparation of meat:

- Remove the film from the rack.

- Clean the bone.

- Make cuts on the meat part to allow the spices to penetrate better.

2. Marinade:

- Add all the spices and oil directly to the meat.

- Thoroughly coat the meat with the mixture. Leave to marinate for 2-3 hours in the refrigerator (or better overnight).

3. Baking:

- Preheat the oven to 200°C.

- Place the meat on a baking sheet lined with parchment or foil with ribs down.

- Cover the meat with foil and bake for 40 minutes.

- Remove the foil, reduce the temperature to 180°C and cook for another 30-40 minutes, periodically basting the meat with the juices that are released. This will make the dish even juicier and give it a golden crust.

4. Serving:

- Before serving, let the meat "rest" for 10-15 minutes to allow the juices to distribute evenly.

- Cut into portions and garnish with fresh greens or cranberry sauce.

You can also add eggplant, peppers, and red onions, and then use the same vegetables as a great side dish.

This dish will be a real decoration of your holiday table!
