Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a large ovenproof skillet heat the vegetable oil over high heat. Season the pork loin all over generously with salt and pepper. Sear the meat until golden brown on all sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the meat to a plate and set it aside.
- Add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic, herb sprigs, and 2 tablespoons of the butter to the skillet. Stir until the vegetables are browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in the sliced apples, then push the mixture to the sides and set the pork loin in the middle of the skillet along with any collected juices on the plate. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast the loin until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the meat registers 140 to 150 degrees F, about 30 to 35 minutes. (See Cook's Note.)
- Transfer the pork a cutting board and cover it loosely with foil while you make the sauce. Arrange the apples and vegetables on a serving platter and set aside. Remove and discard the herb sprigs. Return the skillet to a high heat and add the vinegar scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon to loosen up any browned bits. Reduce by half then add the cider and reduce by about half again. Pull the skillet from the heat and whisk in the mustard, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of cold butter. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Remove the strings from the roast and slice into 1/2-inch thick pieces and arrange over the apple mixture. Drizzle some sauce over meat and serve the rest on the side.
- Cook's Note: Pork cooked this way will be slightly pink. If desired, cook the pork to 160 degrees F, but be aware that this lean cut will not be as moist at the higher temperature.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the onion into a roasting tin and put the pork shoulder on top. Rub the pork skin with the oil and sprinkle with salt and the fennel seeds, if using. Tuck the garlic cloves under the side of the pork. Roast for 30 mins or until the skin begins to crackle up, blister and brown.
- Reduce heat to 180C/160C fan/gas 3, add the apples to the tin, and roast for about 2 hrs or until the meat is very tender when tested with a sharp knife. Lift the pork out to rest and spoon out the apple and onion.

EASY SLOW COOKER APPLE PORK ROAST
My husband doesn't like BBQ sauce, but we had a pork roast. I whipped this up in the slow cooker, and it was awesome served with broccoli and rice, and also as pulled pork sandwiches for the 2 kids and hubby for a few days without them getting tired of it! It got better and better until it was gone, so I figured it was worth sharing. You let me know what you think!

Tips:
- To ensure the pork roast is cooked through and tender, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The roast is done when the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the pork roast for doneness by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the roast. If the juices run clear, the roast is done.
- For a crispy and flavorful pork roast, sear it in a hot skillet before roasting it in the oven. This will help to brown the outside of the roast and lock in the juices.
- To add a pop of sweetness and flavor to the pork roast, add some apples to the roasting pan. The apples will caramelize and soften as they roast, adding a delicious flavor to the pork.
- If you want a thicker sauce, you can make a slurry by mixing cornstarch and water together. Add the slurry to the roasting pan juices and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. The sauce will thicken as it simmers.
Conclusion:
Pork roast with apple is a classic dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The pork is tender and flavorful, and the apples add a pop of sweetness and flavor. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
