ROAST PORK AND THYME PAN GRAVY
The fragrance of this pork roasting will turn your kitchen into a great appetizer. The roast gets smeared with a paste of mustard and thyme. I have also made this with the mustard paste and bay leaves, so choose your own favorite if you're not fond of thyme. Cook time will vary.
