Cranberry Glazed Pork Roast

3½ to 4 lbs. boneless pork loin roast
Salt and white pepper
1 16oz. can whole berry cranberry sauce
¼ cup lemon juice
3 tbsp. brown sugar
1 tsp. cornstarch

Place meat in shallow baking dish; season with salt and pepper. Roast at 450°
for 20 minutes. Reduce oven to 325°; continue roasting.

Meanwhile, in small saucepan, combine remaining ingredients. Over medium heat,
cook and stir until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. After meat has
cooked 1 hour, drain off fat; spoon half of the sauce over meat. Continue
roasting 1 to 1½ hours more or until meat thermometer reaches 170°, basting
occasionally. Spoon remaining sauce over meat; return to oven 10 to 15
minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Refrigerate leftovers.

To make Gravy: In small saucepan, combine meat drippings and 2 tbsp. cornstarch.
Cook over medium heat and stir until thickened. Makes about 2 cups gravy.
