  3. Carefully roll the pork around the potato filling and secure with a toothpick if needed.

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).

  2. Place the rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Tips for the Perfect Baked Pork Rolls

  • Even Slices: Make sure pork slices are even to ensure uniform cooking.

  • Don’t Overstuff: Potato filling should be thin to avoid tearing the pork.

  • Marinate Overnight: Enhances flavor and keeps the pork tender.

  • Glaze Options: Try maple syrup instead of honey for a sweeter variation.
