roast pork with rhubarbroast pork with rhubarbroast pork with rhubarbroast pork with rhubarb

I have always found that the tart taste of rhubarb was fantastic with pork. My first trials with rhubarb were always with savory dishes, sweet dishes came much later ! I often cook my meat with lemon juice but this time, rhubarb would be enough, with a little honey and ginger and garlic. Don’t forget that the rhubarb must be disgorged of its water with a little sugar. A quick and simple savory dish that will complete the rhubarb series recipes because I have none left ! Enjoy ... :)
