Method
- In a large non-reactive baking dish, place the pork loin.
- In a medium bowl, combine the ginger ale, soy sauce, 1/2 cup of the sherry, honey, ginger, the onion, garlic, cardamom, and red pepper flakes.
- Pour over the pork, cover tightly and refrigerate 12 to 24 hours, turning occasionally.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Remove the meat from the marinade and reserve.
- Pat the roast dry with kitchen towels, season lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper, and place in a roasting pan.
- Cook uncovered until an instant-read thermometer registers an internal temperature of 155 degrees F, about 1 hour.
- Remove the roast from the oven and place on a platter.
- Tent with aluminum foil and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes before carving.
- Meanwhile, pour any remaining marinade into a medium saucepan and bring to a boil.
- Cook at a brisk simmer for 5 minutes.
- Place the roasting pan over 2 burners over medium-high heat.
- Add the remaining 1/2 cup sherry and cook, stirring to deglaze the pan.
- Pour the juices into the saucepan with the remaining marinade.
- Add the chicken stock and cook until reduced by almost half.
- Whisk in the butter and remove from the heat.
- Adjust the seasoning to taste.
- Strain into a sauceboat or decorative bowl.
- To serve, arrange the sweet potatoes in the middle of the plate, the haricots verts to the side, and slices of pork around the top.
- Drizzle with the sauce and serve immediately.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a large baking dish with the butter.
- Toss the sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl with the brown sugar, cane syrup, molasses, corn syrup, nutmeg, cloves, allspice, and cinnamon to coat evenly.
- Pour them into the prepared pan and roast until fork-tender, about 1 hour.
