Pork roast

Directions

1. Use a sharp knife to cut thin slits all over the pork roast, and into these slits rub or insert minced or slivered garlic.

2. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush lime juice or seville (sour) orange juice on all parts of the roast, and sprinkle generously with salt and black pepper.

3. In preheated 270°C oven, sear the roast for 20 minutes bone side down.

4. Then reduce oven heat to 180°C/350°F until pork is done to your taste, usually about one hour.

5. Baste pork roast frequently with the lime juice or orange juice, starting when the heat is reduced, and being certain not to overcook the roast. 

6. Allow to stand out of the oven for 10 minutes, prior to carving.
