  Categories: Pork
       Yield: 4 Servings
  
       8 oz Yogurt, plain nonfat
       2    Garlic clove; minced
   1 1/2 ts Kosher salt
     1/2 ts Pepper
       3 lb Boneless pork loin
       2 T  Sugar
       2 T  Mustard seed
  
   Combine the yogurt, garlic, 1 tsp of salt and pepper in a small bowl.
   Place the pork loin in a shallow baking dish and coat well with the
   yogurt mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for several
   hours or overnight. Let the pork stand at room temperature for 1 hour
   before roasting.
   
   Preheat the oven for 350 F.
   
   Wipe the marinade off of the pork and place it in a roasting pan.
   Combine the sugar and mustard seeds and coat the pork with the
   mixture. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 tsp salt. Roast for 1 hour
   20 mins. Raise the oven temperature to 450 F and continue roasting
   until the pork reaches 150 to 160 F on a meat thermometer and the top
   is crisp, about 10 mins longer. Let stand for 15 mins, cut into
   slices, and serve with pan juices.
