Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon, cumin, cayenne, and salt, to taste. Rub the mixture all over the outside of the pork. In a large saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat and brown the pork roast on all sides, just until golden. Remove the pork to a sheet tray, fat side up.
- Meanwhile, make the herb crust: In a food processor, combine the onions, garlic, ginger, cilantro, and lime zest. In the same saute pan in which the pork was browned, add the olive oil and the onion mixture and cook until softened. Stir in the bread crumbs and cook another 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt, to taste. Spread the mustard on top of the fatty layer of pork and then press the herb crust into it. Bake until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 30 minutes. Remove to a cutting board and allow to rest, covered for 5 to 10 minutes. Slice the roast, arrange on a serving platter and serve.

PORK TENDERLOIN (HERB CRUSTED)
Don't confuse this pork tenderloin with a pork loin roast, as they are 2 different cuts of meat. A pork tenderloin is smaller than a pork loin roast. For those of you who shop at Costco, the pork tenderloins come packaged 2 per package in their fresh meat department. If you have any questions e-mail me: [email protected]

Tips:
- To save time, use a pre-made herb crust mix. You can find these in the spice aisle of most grocery stores.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the pork's doneness by cutting into the center. The meat should be cooked through but still slightly pink in the middle.
- Let the pork rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the pork with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad.
