PORK IN PEANUT SAUCE
A quick and easy, delicious way to serve pork! Can be served over a bed of chopped romaine for a low-carb meal, or noodles for the traditionalists. The oil you use will make all the difference: the peanuttier the better; an obscure brand from the ethnic section of the supermarket is usually a better bet than one of the cheaper, mass-market varieties.

PORK SATAY WITH THAI SPICES AND PEANUT SAUCE
Throughout Southeast Asia, little skewers of marinated meat, grilled over coals, are sold as street snacks. Sweetly fragrant with coconut milk and spices, they are perfect for barbecue parties served with steamed rice, or on their own with drinks, whether grilled indoors or out. You may use pork loin or tenderloin, but marbled sirloin or shoulder is more succulent.

PORK SIRLOIN ROAST WITH THAI PEANUT SAUCE (SLOW COOKER)
I was going to make satay but then saw a beautiful pork roast. So I used it to make a roast that was a real hit at home. I used a 5 quart slow cooker for this. If you use a boneless roast or a different size slow cooker, your time will differ. I am guessing the number of servings. The calorie count is off, as you get a lot of bone in that roast.

Steps:
- Heat large skillet with oil. Season pork roast with salt and pepper and brown on all sides in skillet. (If you are using a boneless roast, be sure to tie at 1 inch intervals with kitchen twine). This will take about 20 minutes.
- While that is browning, combine all of the sauce ingredients except for the broth in a blender or bowl, and blend until smooth in the blender or with an immersion blender.
- Remove pork roast and place in slow cooker. Reduce skillet to low.
- Pour the broth into the skillet and deglaze. Pour into the sauce and buzz briefly to incorporate.
- Pour over the pork roast.
- Cover and cook on low for about 4 hours, or until roast reads 140-145 deg F. on an instant read thermometer.
- Remove roast to a platter, cover with foil and allow to rest about 10 minutes.
- Buzz the sauce briefly to smooth it out, if you need to. (Mine just needed stirring).
- Slice pork and serve with sauce, garnished with chopped scallions and peanuts. (As I look at the sauce, I think it might be enough for about 6 servings. It's enough for me, but you might want more).
