Pork in apple sauce
Description
The recipe won't take much time. You'll see that restaurant dishes aren't always complicated or time-consuming. Pork in apple sauce is direct proof of that. I first tried it at my friend's birthday party—he's a chef at one of the prestigious restaurants. He shared the recipe with me, and I was actually surprised how simple it is! There's no need to marinate the meat; in the oven, the spices quickly blend and infuse the meat with their juices. My friend serves this dish with various salads. He doesn't trust ordinary side dishes. You'll definitely enjoy pork in apple sauce. Serve it hot.

Step 5
It's best to start preparing the apple sauce 10 minutes before the meat is done, so it doesn't have time to thicken. And there you have it—your sauce is ready, and the pork is roasted. Take it out of the oven.
