Baked pork loin with creamy mushroom sauce and rice is a comforting main course where tender pork meets a velvety sauce of sour cream, double cream and mushrooms.

About this recipe
Baked pork loin with creamy mushroom sauce and rice, made in the Thermomix TM7, is the kind of recipe that turns a quick weeknight dinner into something that tastes slow-cooked. Pork tenderloin is browned for a savoury crust, then finished alongside fluffy long grain rice, while the real magic happens in the mixing bowl: mushrooms, vegetable stock paste, lemon juice, sour cream and double cream are combined into a velvety sauce that never splits thanks to precise temperature control. Home cooks searching for pork tenderloin recipes in an all-in-one kitchen machine will appreciate how the TM7 chops fresh parsley in seconds and emulsifies the dairy into a restaurant-quality consistency. The lemon cuts through the richness of the cream, the homemade stock paste adds depth, and a drizzle of olive oil keeps the loin succulent. Serve it for family dinners or casual entertaining, garnished with the reserved parsley for colour and freshness.
Preparation tips
- Pat the pork tenderloin dry with kitchen paper before browning so it develops a golden crust rather than steaming. Season it generously with sea salt and let it rest briefly after baking so the juices redistribute.
- Reserve a spoonful of the chopped parsley to sprinkle over the finished mushroom sauce just before serving. This keeps the herb fresh and green instead of dull from prolonged cooking in the cream.
- For a family-friendly version, replace part of the sour cream with mild crème fraîche and serve the lemon juice separately at the table. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat the sauce gently while stirring.
Recipe variations
- Lactose-free version: swap the sour cream and double cream for lactose-free cooking cream and a spoonful of lactose-free yoghurt. The mushroom sauce stays silky and the pork loin and rice remain exactly the same.
- Festive autumn variation: add cubes of pumpkin to the rice while it cooks and stir crispy fried sage into the mushroom sauce. Finish the baked pork loin with a dash of white wine for a seasonal Sunday dinner.
