Step 1

Trim any fat from pork. Tuck end under to make uniform thickness; tie with kitchen string.

Step 2

Sprinkle with peppercorns and salt.

Step 3

Roast on rack in roasting pan in 375°F (190°C) oven for about 35 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted at 20-degree angle registers 160°F (70°C) and just a hint of pink remains inside.

Step 4

Transfer to cutting board and tent with foil; let stand for 10 minutes. (Make-ahead: Cool wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)

Step 5

Untie and slice very thinly across the grain.

Step 6

Place baguette slices on baking sheet and brush with oil; broil for 2 minutes or until golden. (Make-ahead: Store in airtight container for up to 24 hours.)

Step 7

With vegetable peeler, peel off thin strips of Parmesan to make 30 curls; set aside.

Step 8

In small bowl, combine mayonnaise, lemon rind and lemon juice; spread over baguette slices.

Step 9

Top each with pork slice and cheese curl.
