Roast Pork and Pasta

For the pork: Season pork with salt, pepper and paprika. Heat oil in a roasting pan and sear pork on all sides. Remove pork and cook bones. Add roasted vegetables. Peel and chop onion, then add to pan. Return pork to pan and roast in an oven preheated to 200°C (approximately 400°F) for about 1 1/2 hours. Bast with pan juices throughout.

For the pasta: Cook noodles in plenty of boiling salted water until al dente, drain and rinse with cold water. Trim asparagus and thinly slice. Trim snow peas and cut in half crosswise. Rinse and core tomatoes. Cook asparagus for 2-3 minutes in boiling salted water, add snow peas and cook for 1 more minute, then drain.

Remove pork from the oven, wrap in foil and let rest briefly. Strain pan juices through a sieve, thicken with cornstarch, as desired, and season with salt and pepper.
