3 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard (Grey Poupon)

1 large onion, cut into wedges

Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to a roasting pan that will fit the loin of pork

… Add onion wedges and apple wedges to the roasting pan …Spread them evenly and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place pork atop apple-onion mixture.

Tightly cover the pan with aluminum foil and place in the oven, reduce the heat of the oven to 350°F. Roast about two hours … until apple-onion mixture is soft and brown and meat thermometer inserted into center of pork registers 150°F. Transfer pork to platter and tent with foil. Let stand at least 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, pour white wine over apple-onion mixture in pan. Stir mixture over high heat until slightly reduced, about 2 minutes. Cut pork on diagonal into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Spoon apple-onion mixture onto plates. Top with pork and serve.
