3 tsp minced fresh ginger
3 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
1-2 tbsp olive oil
1/3 cup minced onion

Preheat oven to 32 Place roast on a cutting board. If roast is tied, do not untie. Cut 1/2 deep slits all over surface of roast and insert some of the fresh ginger and sliver of garlic in each slit. Rub roast with oil. Place roast on a roasting rack in a shallow pan.

Remove roast from oven, cover loosely with foil and let stand 10 minutes while the temperature of the meat rises to 160. Remove strings from roast. Carve into thin slices. Serves 6-8
