List of Ingredients




1 center cut pork loin roast (3-1/2 pounds)
1-1/2 cups cranberry apple juice, divided
1 cup chardonnay or other dry white wine
1-1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
2 tablespoons apricot preserves
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots
2 tablespoons golden raisins

Recipe



Place pork roast in large resealable plastic food storage bag. Combine 1 cup cranberry apple juice, chardonnay, ginger and cardamom in medium bowl. Pour over roast, turning to coat. Seal bag. Marinate in refrigerator 4 hours or overnight, turning several times.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Remove roast from marinade; reserve marinade. Place roast in roasting pan. Pour marinade over roast. Bake, loosely covered with foil, 1 hour. Remove foil and continue baking 30 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165°F when tested with a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of roast not touching bone. Transfer roast to cutting board; cover with foil. Internal temperature will continue to rise 5°F to 10°F during stand time.

Measure juices from pan. Add enough remaining cranberry apple juice to equal 1-1/2 cups. Combine juices and apricot preserves in small saucepan. Stir water into cornstarch in cup until smooth; stir into juice mixture. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook until thickened, stirring frequently. Add dried cranberries, apricots and raisins. Cook 2 minutes; remove from heat. Cut roast into thin slices. Drizzle some sauce over roast; serve with remaining sauce. Garnish, if desired.
