Ginger Roasted Pork
The Wine Experience Recommendation: Pinot Noir
Serves 10
Sweet potatoes, pork, and ginger - add a little Pinot Noir and you have a winning combination for a dinner party.
Ingredients
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 2" pieces
1 large onion, cut into wedges
1 large red bell pepper, cut into 2" pieces
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1⁄2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1⁄2 teaspoon ground allspice
1⁄2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 boneless pork loin roast (about 2 pounds)
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the potatoes, onion, and pepper in a large roasting pan. Drizzle with the oil, sprinkle with 1⁄4 teaspoon of the salt, and toss to coat well. Push to the perimeter of the roasting pan.
2. In a small bowl, combine the ginger, allspice, cinnamon, and the remaining 1⁄4 teaspoon salt, stirring to blend well. Rub the spice mixture over the pork.
3. Place the pork in the center of the roasting pan. Roast for 1 hour, or until the vegetables are tender and a thermometer inserted in the center of the pork reaches 155°F and the juices run clear. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
