The ingredients for Herbed Pork Roast are:

32.0 oz Hormel Always Tender Boneless Pork Loin, Fresh Pork
1.0 tsp Pepper, black
3.0 tbsp Parmesan Cheese, grated
2.0 tsp Rosemary, dried
1.0 tsp Dried Thyme
1.0 tsp dried basil
0.28 tsp Garlic powder
0.5 tsp Cumin seed
1.0 tsp Salt

Here is how you make Herbed Pork Roast:

Preheat oven to 350?F (important for tender roast).Pat pork roast dry with paper towel.In small bowl stir together all spices (see note below regarding peppercorns) with the parmesan cheese to make the "rub".Rub herb mixture over entire roast for about 1 minute. You should have LOTS of herb mixture left over. The roast will have a very thick coating.Pool 1T of olive oil in bottom of the smallest, shallow baking dish that the roast will fit into. Place the roast fat side up over the olive oil (if you have fat on it). Put some of the extra herb rub underneath the roast and pile the remaining herb mixture on top of the roast. Pour 1/2 cup of water in bottom of pan to keep the drippings from burning.Put in oven and bake uncovered for approximately1 hour until internal temperature reaches 145?F.**PLEASE NOTE After about 30 minutes of baking the water will have evaporated and you should have some nice golden bits. You will have to add enough water to cover the bottom 1/4 inch of the roast itself at that point no more, no less. Watch it carefully and do not let the drippings burn. By the end of cooking it should have reduced to about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of liquid.Once internal temperature reads 145-150?F immediately remove the roast from the oven and cover the pan with foil for a minimum of 15 minutes before slicing. **Side Note: The key to a tender roast is to use a meat thermometer and follow up with the tenting method. This allows the internal temperature of the roast to raise another 10 degrees after it comes out of the oven so that the meat gets completely cooked to a safe temperature, and is so moist and juicy.Serving Size: makes 6 servingsNumber of Servings: 6.0Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user BSMCMACKIN69.
