Ingredients

• 1 (2 1/2 pounds) boneless pork loin sirloin roast

• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Place roast in oven bag then place bag in 9x13-inch baking dish.

In small bowl, combine brown sugar, applesauce, and ginger; mix well.

Spoon over roast; seal bag then cut six 1-inch slits in top. Bake 55 to 60 minutes, or until little pink remains for medium-well, or no pink remains for well-done.

In small bowl, combine cornstarch and water; mix well.

In medium saucepan, combine pan drippings from bag and cornstarch mixture. Cook over high heat 2 to 3 minutes, or until sauce begins to thicken, stirring constantly.

Cut roast into thin slices and serve with sauce spooned over top.
