Roast Pork with Potatoes and Apples

It's the start of Autumn today!
This roast pork with apples and potatoes is easy and marvelous.
Enjoy!

Roast Pork with Potatoes and Apples:
Everyday food 2012

5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 pork roast (2 1/2 pounds), tied with butcher's string at 1 inch intervals
kosher salt
black pepper
2 Gala or Fuji Apples
2 sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2 inch wedges
2 russet potatoes cut into 1/2 inch wedges (I added the russet potatoes because Zoe doesn't like sweet potatoes)

Preheat oven to 475 degrees.
Coat a heavy-bottomed metal roasting pan with 2 tablespoons oil.
Place pork in center of pan and season with salt and pepper.
Roast until top is golden, about 15 minutes.


While the roast is in chop up the potatoes, sweet potatoes, and apples.


Toss the apples and potatoes with the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil and add to the pan, arranging around the pork.
Return to oven and roast for about 20 more minutes.
Roast until the apples and potatoes are tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted in center of pork reads 140 degrees.


Allow the pork to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
It was delicious, moist, and we all loved it.
I hope you do, too!
