Roast Pork Calypso Style

Writer: Drew Fox JordanDrew Fox Jordan

This is the ultimate leftovers meal. Unless you are serving a family of about 8, you should be good for the next day too. Pictured here is too much food (I got the serving size wrong).


Inspiration: Epicurious


Ingredients


Pork Roast:

3 shallots, chopped

2 bay leaves, crumbled

1 1/2 tsp salt

3/4 tsp ground allspice

3/4 tsp ground ginger

1 1/2 cups fresh orange juice

1/4 cup minced shallots

3 tbsp brown sugar
