Cooking Instructions
Rub Pork with a mixture of black and cayenne pepper. In a bowl, combine onions and celery. Stir in the tomato sauce, broth and lemon juice. Pour this mixture into a shallow 4 litre casserole or roasting pan. Place Pork roast on top of mixture and cover. Braise in a 350°F (160°C) oven 30 minutes. Add remaining ingredients except parsley. Continue braising 1 hour or until vegetables and roast are tender and a meat thermometer inserted in roast registers 160°F (71°C). Sprinkle with parsley.
