Turnips & Pork with rosemary & bitter orange?

[bunnyjadwiga]

This is what I cooked for dinner last night; the theme was "finish up the root veggies":

8 medium turnips, peeled and cut into 8ths
3 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 4ths
2 medium onions, cut into 4ths
a handful (maybe 10-12) peeled garlic cloves
a 1 to 1.5 lb hunk of pork loin, browned
7-8 carrots peeled and cut into 2" sections
2 sprigs of rosemary under the pork, 6 on top.
Bitter orange juice, mignonette pepper, and dried savory

375 degree oven, 1 hour 45 minutes; held at 250 degrees for a further half hour or so.

Sarah & Juergen liked this; I think I put a bit too much bitter orange juice and should have thinned it.

sounds very good. Also about as seasonally appropriate as you can get. Here's hoping for a brief and easy "hungry gap", eh?
