Servings: persons

4 large tomatoes, diced small
1 medium onion, chopped finely
1 handful basil, finely chopped
4 clove garlic, finely minced
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1 tbsp salt (for insalata)
15 half-inch slices pork loin, seasoned
10 lb potatoes, washed and cut into sixths
1 stick butter
1 tbsp salt (for potatoes)
1 tsp ground black pepper
1 cup milk

1
Boil in a large pan enough water to cover the potatoes, and then add the potatoes.
2
Drain the potatoes, and set aside for a moment.
3
Add the first six ingredients into a medium mixing bowl, lightly toss to mix, and set aside.
4
Season the pork loin, and, by that, I mean salt and pepper (and granulated garlic, if you are like me) them to your liking, and place them into a single layer in a very large flat pan.
5
Broil the pork a few minutes on each side, about 6 or 7 minutes per side, I'd say, until the loin is just barely cooked through.
6
You need to keep an eye on it every other minute or so.
7
Set it aside.
8
Now add the butter and salt and milk to the potatoes, and mash to a nice consistency.
9
I like little lumps in my mashed potatoes, but to each his or her own.
10
OK, plating!
11
One to two half cup plops of mashed potatoes on a plate, depending on whether you have a hunger like a beast, incline slice one of the loins and use your knife to gently lift the whole sliced loin onto the potatoes, add a little liquid from the pan over the loin and potatoes, and then generously adorn the loin with the insalata.
12
OK, eating!
13
Get a little bit of the potatoes and the pork and the insalata in every bite.
14
I think it works with either white or red wine.
