Directions
Have your butcher make a pocket in the center of the loin and prepare the stuffing as follows. Heat the butter in a skillet and saute the onion until limp and golden. Add the tomato, spinach, and ham and cook for a few minutes over low heat to blend flavors. Season with salt and pepper, remove from heat, and add the chopped hard-cooked egg. Stuff the pork loin with this mixture and skewer to close the pocket. In the same skillet, heat the 2 tablespoons of oil and thoroughly brown the loin on all sides. Transfer the meat to a shallow roasting pan, add the chicken stock, and bake, uncovered, in a preheated 325 F oven for 1½ to 1 ¾ hours. If desired, add a can of tomato sauce to pan drippings, stir well, and serve the sauce in a gravy boat. Makes 4 to 6 servings. Trader Vic's Book of Mexican Cooking Typos by Brenda Adams
