Roast Pork with Apple Sauce

THERE is something rather marvellous involved when it comes to a good pork roast, with its the crispy crackling and delicious, flavourinfused meat. The really good part about this dish is the ease and simplicity of making it, allowing you more time with your family while it is simply sizzling away in the oven. The flavour of the apple sauce with the juicy pork reminds me of all the good times with my grandmother, better known as Ouma. 3 large apples 1/4 cup water 1 tsp sugar Pinch of cinnamon Pre-heat oven to 240 Using a sharp knife, score pork rind by making shallow 1cm deep cuts into the pork.
