This beautiful roast is the creation of Canadian chef Anna Olson. I made it for Sunday dinner for my husband and myself but it is definitely dinner party fare!

Time 1h50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 onions, peeled
1/2 cup grainy mustard
3 tablespoons orange marmalade
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 lbs boneless pork loin roast
2 bartlett pears, sliced
1 orange, quartered
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 sprig fresh sage
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 cup chicken stock
1 teaspoon fresh sage, finely chopped
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled
salt
ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a food processor, puree 1/2 of one of the onions, grainy mustard, marmalade, butter, salt and pepper.
  • Place the pork roast (it can be tied or untied) in a roasting pan and slather with the mustard glaze.
  • Slice the remaining onions and arrange, along with the pears, orange and fresh herbs, around the pork loin.
  • Roast uncovered for 15 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F, roasting for about 75 minutes, until an internal temperature of 175 degrees F is reached.
  • Remove the roast from the pan and let rest on a cutting board or platter for 15 minutes before slicing.
  • For the sauce, remove the orange segments, thyme and sage sprigs, and discard.
  • Place the pan over medium heat and add the white wine, stirring to pull up any caramelized bits for the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the chicken stock and sage and simmer until reduced by half.
  • Reduce the heat to low and stir in the cold butter just until melted.
  • Season to taste and serve beside slices of the roast pork.
