Not sure where this recipe came from, but I cooked it at the beach one summer with a friend and it became a tradition every time we returned (and lots of times at home, inbetween). This is a savory roast. The marmalade and white wine bring out the flavor and juiciness of the roast but don't overpower with sweetness. Ingredients:
3 1/2-4 lbs pork loin roast (center-cut) |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
salt & freshly ground black pepper |
2 teaspoons rosemary (fresh) |
1 cup white wine (dry) |
1 cup water |
1/2 cup orange marmalade |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Place the pork loin on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Brush meat with the olive oil and then sprinkle with salt, pepper and rosemary. Pour the wine and water into the roasting pan. Roast for 1 hour.
3. Remove the pan from the oven and spoon 1/2 cup of pan drippings into a small bowl. Add the marmalade and mix well. Pour this mixture over the meat and return it to the oven.
4. Continue roasting the meat for 35 to 45 minutes, basting it 2 to 3 times with the pan drippings, until a meat thermometer reaches 160 degrees F.
5. Let the meat rest 15 minutes before serving. Skim any fat from the pan drippings and serve with the roast.
