This makes for a delicious Sunday dinner. I serve it with rice (sometimes mashed potatoes, though) and broccoli.
Ingredients:
1 boneless pork loin, 5 to 6 pounds
1/2 cup dry sherry
1/2 cup soya sauce
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon freshly grated gingerroot
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, minced,or
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup red currant jelly or 1 cup black currant jelly
2 tablespoons dry sherry
1 tablespoon soya sauce
1 tablespoon freshly grated gingerroot
Directions:
1. You'll need 2 heavy-duty large plastic bags; place one inside the other, then place roast inside inner bag.
2. In bowl, combine all other roast ingredients and mix well; pour over the roast in the bag.
3. Press out any air, tie it up with a twist-tie or elastic band, and place in a large bowl and stash in your fridge.
4. Marinate for about 6 hours, occasionally squishing bag to make sure all the meat gets contact with the marinade; you can get away with 3 to 4 hours though.
5. Preheat oven to 325F degrees.
6. Remove roast from bag, discarding marinade.
7. Place roast on a rack in a roasting pan and roast until pork reaches internal temp of 170F (75C) and juice is no longer pink- about 3 hours.
8. Let stand for about 15 minutes before carving to allow juices to settle back into meat.
9. To make the sauce, combine all sauce ingredients in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until jelly melts.
10. Stir well and serve with pork.
