90 minutes

Pork with mushrooms in cranberry sauce is a refined dish of European cuisine that combines tender meat, aromatic mushrooms, and the tangy acidity of cranberries. Historically, the combination of meat and berries was used in medieval gastronomy to add depth of flavor to dishes. Here, the cranberry sauce is enriched with sugar and cheese, creating a perfect balance of sweet, salty, and sour. Pork rolls stuffed with champignons acquire an appetizing crust in the oven while their juiciness is preserved by the berry sauce. This dish is perfect for a festive dinner or a family meal, revealing a richness of flavors with every bite. Serve it with a glass of red wine to highlight the rich notes of cranberry.
