Turmeric Cumin Roasted Pork Tenderloin
This pork tenderloin is roasted with a blend of turmeric, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. The spice mixture gives the pork a warm and savory flavor, and the olive oil helps to keep it moist and juicy. The pork is seared on all sides before being roasted, which helps to develop a flavorful crust. The pork is cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C), which is the ideal temperature for medium-rare pork. The pork is then removed from the oven and allowed to rest for 5 minutes before being sliced and served. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the pork, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
