Roast Pork Loin

I have a whole loin that I was going to put into the freezer for another day, a rainy day, but my freezer is quite full. So, I roasted it instead. A paste made of garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, cumin, coriander, chili pepper and olive oil is rubbed onto the meat before putting it into the 400℉ oven. It is roasted to internal temperature of 160℉.













I tried to make a pan sauce with the oatmeal stout I was drinking. The result is rather bitter so I added some brown sugar and balsamic vinegar to it. After balancing it out, the taste was quite good. The meat is tender and tasty and the rice soak up the sauce very well.
