2 ½ tbls MA’s Garlic paste
1 tbls salt
2 tbls dried thyme
1 ½ cup orange juice
1/3 cup vinegar
¾ cup brown sugar
1/3 cup honey
2 tbls MA’s Chilli powder
2 ½ tbls MA’s Roast Seasoning
salt and pepper
1 bone-in pork loin roast (3 kg)
Step 1
Combine garlic paste, thyme and salt in a small bowl.
Step 2
Rub this mixture over the entire pork loin, then place in a greased baking pan.
Step 3
Bake uncovered in a preheated 180C oven for 2 hours.
Step 4
While the roast is cooking, in a small saucepan, combine roast seasoning, orange juice, vinegar, brown sugar, honey & chili powder. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and allow to simmer until sauce has reduced & thickened.
Step 5
After the roast has cooked for the two hours, remove it from oven. With a brush, coat the roast with the orange glaze.
Step 6
Keep coating the roast with the glaze every 15 minutes for another 60-90 minutes, or until the roast reaches an internal temperature of 70ŸC. (check in the thickest part of the meat with a meat thermometer).
Step 7
Once the internal temperature of the roast has reached 160ŸC, remove it from oven.
Step 8
Allow the roast to rest for 10 minutes then slice. Serve with additional glaze spooned over the slices of roast.
