Chestnuts: 1/2 kg
New potatoes, for roasting: 20

Method of preparation
The day before, season the meat with the pepper paste, salt, pepper, bay leaves, garlic, rosemary and wine. Reserve the marinade.
The next day, add the olive oil to the pressure cooker. When it is hot, carefully place the loin in and turn until all the meat is sealed around it.
Remove the meat and set aside.
Add the sliced onion, tomato, jelly and meat marinade, as well as meat broth, to the already used olive oil. When it is boiling, add the meat again, cover the pan and let it cook for one hour.
Remove the meat to a pyrex dish and lightly cook the potatoes in the sauce left in the pan (with the pan open, to cook the sauce).
Remove the potatoes and add them to the meat. Also add the cooked and peeled chestnuts (which can be frozen). Spread the meat with the sauce and then with garlic butter, adjust the seasoning and bake on the grill until the potatoes are completely cooked.
