Spiced Pork Loin with Plums image

When plums are in season, I make this every other week. I originally adapted the recipe for use with chicken, but discovered it was even better with pork. I fixed it for 70 people for my granddaughter's christening and everyone wanted the recipe.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I would make it again, but I would use less sugar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pork turned out tough and the plums were mushy. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

I would give this recipe a 3 out of 5 stars. The pork was cooked well, but the flavor was just average. The plums were a nice addition, but they didn't really add much to the dish.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pork turned out dry and the plums were too tart. I'm not sure what went wrong.
