Preparation
Step 1
SAUCE
Melt the butter in a saucepan; add the onions and saute' until tender. Add the remaining ingredients and simmer for 15 minutes. Set aside.
ROAST
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Moisten the roast with a damp paper towel to help hold the seasonings. In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, salt, herbs, and spices. With a sharp knife make 1/2 inch deep slits in the top of the roast. Press the seasoning mixture into the slits, and rub the remainder over the entire roast Place the roast in a roaster pan and pour 1/2 cup plum sauce over it. Cover and bake for 2 1/2 hours. Uncover the roast and baste it with additional plum sauce; bake for 30 minutes longer, basting 2 or 3 times, until the roast is nicely browned. Serve the remaining plum sauce on the side for dipping.
