So I guessed at the oven temperature! 350F? Also...I didn't sear the pork first. Our American little piggies are so lean these days. I was afraid of tough-as-an-old-boot meat. So. I layered the ingredients in my Le Creuset oval French Oven. Pork (seasoned with cinnamon, salt and black pepper), Plums, onion (and leek)...and again. I also added orange slices between the layers. The meat melted in my mouth. The sauce thickened nicely (we added more black pepper to it!). We served it with JenT's Easy Spinach Salad (our new favorite) with sliced, raw red onion. This was very easy and healthy. No starch needed! To the Winner's Circle!
