    It was dad's time to cook and I made this for my family, they loved it. Next time I would probably use less cumin and chili powder and more stock.

    Okay, I read the reviews prior to cooking this so I had a few good tips. I cooked it uncovered and I decreased the amount of chili powder & cumin (however I think I will use the recipe amounts next time. This had a great flavor. My husband, who loves pork but is leery of new recipes, liked it. It was very moist and it had a great crust on it. The veggies turned out great too. I used the drippings left over in the pan to make a pan gravy for mashed potatoes and it made a very flavorful gravy. Would definitely make it again and I recommend you try it. We really liked it.

    I made this recipe today on New Years Day. It was delicious. The spices were right on and it just added alittle bit of heat but was not overpowering. Definately will make this again.

    I made this a couple of weeks ago. It came out perfect and was absolutely delicious. I made the topping and still wondered what was in it with each bite. It is the perfect holiday blend of herbs and spices. I definitely plan on making it again!!!

    I was feeling adventurous yesterday afternoon and although the spice list seemed unusual, I decided to try this recipe as a departure from my usual garlicky pork roast. I prepared this recipe very carefully, following all of the instructions regarding ingredients, quantities, temperature and time. Alas, It was a sad, sad waste of a beautiful, well marbled, pork tenderloin roast. The end result was a crust that had to be removed because it was inedible and meat that was sort of tender but almost tasteless. I did not cover or tent the roast, yet the juices were over-abundant and even reducing them didn't concentrate the flavors because there weren't any to speak of. Was the 400 degree cooking temperature too high? Was the mustard too much? Am I simply not too crazy about Indian food flavorings? I don't know, but it surely didn't have the simple elegant flavors I've come to rely on from Giada.

    I used this recipe during the holidays. I found that the mustard was bitter so scraped most of it off before serving and the meat was delicious. It was very moist. Next time I will use more brown sugar and less mustard. If it tastes bitter before it cooks, it will be bitter later.
