The lost land..
A roast is prepared quickly and gives us great satisfaction at the table. You can also cook in the pot, but I always prefer the oven, because it distributes the heat better and I can do other things while the meat is cooked.
The roast, in general, should not to be overcooked,mean no too much cook...and it is important to cook the meat quickly for making the crust outside and then cook more 'slowly inside. This ensures that the meat does not lose the flavor and also the nutrients that they remain well protected in the center. So to get a good roast before baking, and passed quickly over high heat the meat in a pan or a pot, on all sides.
In this recipe the pork is an ideal companion in the flavoring of fennel.

Serve 4/6

800 gr. pork shoulder
