Get ready to surprise your family and friends with a pork roll with garlic, a dish that will bring a touch of elegance and flavor to your table. This recipe is simple, but the final result is absolutely spectacular. Plus, it’s perfect for a festive dinner or a weekend meal.

Necessary ingredients:
- 1.5 kg pork (preferably thigh or shoulder)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 medium onions, finely chopped
- 4-5 cloves of garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon of herbs (rosemary, thyme, or oregano - your choice)
- 100 ml white wine (optional, for a deeper flavor)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil

Preparation:
1. Start by preparing the meat. Wash the piece of pork well under cold water and dry it with a paper towel. Remove any excess skin or fat for a healthier and tastier final result. Season the meat with salt, pepper, and herbs, ensuring it is evenly coated.

2. In a large skillet, add the two tablespoons of butter along with the olive oil over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until golden and fragrant. This will be the filling that gives your roll a special flavor.

3. After the onion and garlic have cooled slightly, combine them with the pork. Spread the mixture evenly over the entire surface of the meat, leaving the edges free for easier rolling.

4. Now comes the fun part - rolling! Start from one end of the meat and slowly roll it up, making sure the filling stays inside. Use kitchen twine to tie the roll in two or three places to keep its shape during baking.

5. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the roll in a baking dish and, if desired, add the white wine to create a delicious sauce around the meat. Cover the dish with aluminum foil for the first part of the baking, then remove it to allow the roll to brown nicely.

6. Bake the roll for about 1 hour, or until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 75°C. Check occasionally to ensure it doesn’t dry out.

7. After removing the roll from the oven, let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.

Serving suggestion:
Serve the pork roll with garlic alongside mashed potatoes or grilled vegetables for a complete meal. You can also add a fresh green salad to balance the richness of the dish.

Possible variations:
For an even richer flavor, you can add some chopped green or black olives to the filling. Also, for a sweeter note, try adding a grated apple to the onion and garlic mixture.
