cookFennel-Rubbed Pork Roast

From: bonappetit.com SERVES 8

3 pounds pork top sirloin roast, tied
1 tablespoon olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons fennel seeds, crushed
1 tablespoon anise seeds, crushed
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Preheat oven to 400°. Rub pork with oil; season generously with salt and pepper and rub with fennel seeds, anise seeds, and red pepper flakes, pressing to adhere.

Place pork roast, fat side up, on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until deeply browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 135°, 60–70 minutes.

Transfer to a cutting board; let pork rest at least 10 minutes before slicing.
