Recipe and Whole Foods…enjoy. IF you enjoy pork roast…flavors n textures…try this recipe.
I wasn’t sure about the chutney, but I took a leap of faith – I used hot mango chutney, and I soaked the dried fruit in Calvados overnight. I made a Calvados pan gravy after roasting the meat. Incredible!
loved the spicy and fruit taste and it was easy to prepare
This was so beautiful and easy and impressive. I threw in frozen cranberries instead of prunes.It looked great with the apricots.
I’m a total novice in the kitchen and on my first try I had great success with this recipe.
The flavor and presentation are fantastic, and the preparation is simple and fast. As for the roasting, I’d recommend — for what it’s worth coming from a novice — investing in a meat thermometer to monitor the roasting. I removed from the pork loin form the oven right as the internal temperature hit 145-150 degrees.
The result was a moist, flavorful, colorful, and thoroughly gourmet dinner. (And the reheated leftovers were good, too!)
