Pork Loin with Currant Sauce
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 5 min. Bake: 2-1/2 hours + standing
YIELD: 10 servings.
I serve this roast often to family and friends...and someone at the table always asks for the recipe. To complete the meal, I make stir-fried green beans and a lightened-up version of twice-baked potatoes.
