Instructions

Working time approx. 45 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 2 hours 30 minutes; Total time approx. 3 hours 15 minutes

Clean the mushrooms and chanterelles and cut into slices or smaller pieces. Finely chop the onion. Clean the pork fillet and cut into thumb-thick slices. Brown the mushrooms with 2 tablespoons of clarified butter in an ovenproof roasting pan or pot over high heat until they have significantly reduced in volume. Remove the mushrooms. Season the pork fillet with salt and plenty of pepper and briefly brown it very hot in the roasting pan with 1 tablespoon of clarified butter until the meat has developed a nice color and roasted aromas on both sides. Remove the meat and reduce the heat. Preheat the oven to 160°C (top/bottom heat). Place the oven rack on the lowest shelf in the oven. Add the onions to the roasting pan and cook over medium heat until translucent. Add the garlic, crushed or chopped, and after simmering for one minute, deglaze with the white wine. Do not overcook the garlic, as this will give it a bitter taste. Now add the chicken stock, then the meat and mushrooms. Everything should be just covered with liquid. Place the roasting pan in the oven for 120 minutes. You can check on it occasionally and add more liquid if necessary. Remove the roasting pan from the oven and take out the meat. Add the cream and stir. If the consistency is too runny, mix 1 tablespoon of flour with a little cold water until smooth and slowly add it to the gently simmering sauce, stirring constantly. Stir well, otherwise there will be lumps. Alternatively, you can use a light sauce thickener. Add the parsley and season with salt and pepper. Return the meat to the pan and let it warm up. Spätzle goes perfectly with this.
