  • ¾ cup of bread crumbs
  • 1 beaten egg

  • To make the filling: place the ham, carrots, roasted red peppers, onions, scallions and garlic in a food processor. Transfer to a mixing bowl , add the egg and bread crumbs.
  • Place pork, fat side down, on work surface with 1 short end facing you. Using sharp knife and starting ½ inch above underside of roast, cut ½ inch in along right side. Continue cutting ½ inch above underside, unrolling roast.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven.
  • Once your pork roast is in a flat piece, use a meat mallet to pound the pork so that most of the meat is in one even layer. Spread the filling over the pork.
  • Roll up pork, arrange seam side down on work surface. Tie the pork with kitchen string. Transfer the pork to a caldero or roasting pan.
  • Rub the pork all over with the olive oil and then season with salt and pepper.
  • Roast pork at 400 degrees F until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of loin registers 140-160 for about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Let the pork rest for at least 25 minutes before slicing.
