Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare the pork by tying it up with string in about six sections cross ways. Rub garlic, salt and pepper on each side of the meat.
- Add the olive oil to a large skillet and add the pork. Sear the sides for just a minute to so. Remove from pan and place on a large sheet of aluminum foil. Pour over the white cooking wine and loosely seal the foil around the pork. Place the pork in a roasting dish and place in your preheated oven. Roast for about 50 minutes. Pork should be just cooked and just a hint of pink in the center when it comes out of the oven.
- While the pork is roasting, make the sauce. Set a small saucepan over a high heat. Add the sherry and the sugar. Stir well and bring it to a boil. Immediately reduce the heat to low and continue to cook the sauce for about a half of an hour. While the sauce is reducing, stir occasionally. Remove from heat and leave to cool slightly. You will have a syrupy consistency.
- Remove your pork from the oven and lay it on a chopping board. Take off the string and cut the roast into thin medallions. Serve hot with the sauce drizzled over the pork. As the sauce is quite sweet and rich, you won't need much of it to flavour your pork.

ROAST PORK WITH CHERRY SAUCE
I found this recipe in a weekly magazine that comes with our newspaper. I am not a big meat eater, but I figured that matching the pork with the cherries was a good mix and boy was I right. I hope you enjoy this as much as my husband and I did! The cherry sauce did call for putting in 12 whole cloves when you are simmering it with the sugar and cinnamon, and then removing them. I did not do this as I don't like cloves.

Tips:
- Choosing the Right Pork Roast: Opt for a bone-in pork shoulder or pork butt roast for maximum flavor and moisture. These cuts are well-suited for slow cooking and will yield tender, succulent results.
- Preparing the Pork Roast: Pat the roast dry and season generously with salt and pepper. If desired, you can also rub the roast with a mixture of herbs and spices for added flavor.
- Searing the Pork Roast (Optional): While not essential, searing the roast in a hot skillet before braising adds a nice browned crust and extra depth of flavor. Make sure to sear all sides of the roast for even cooking.
- Using the Right Cooking Liquid: The combination of chicken broth, white wine, and sherry adds a rich and complex flavor to the sauce. You can adjust the ratio of these liquids according to your preference or use a different type of broth or wine.
- Adding Vegetables: Feel free to add vegetables of your choice to the braising liquid. Carrots, celery, onions, and garlic are classic additions that complement the pork roast well.
- Cooking Time and Temperature: The general rule of thumb is to cook the pork roast for about 1 hour per pound at 300°F (150°C). Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the internal temperature of the roast has reached at least 145°F (63°C) before removing it from the oven.
- Resting the Pork Roast: Once the roast is cooked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
Conclusion:
This recipe for Pork Roast with Herb-Sherry Sauce offers a delightful combination of flavors and textures that is sure to impress your taste buds. The tender and succulent pork roast, paired with the rich and savory sauce, makes for a satisfying and memorable meal.
