   • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
   • In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, ginger powder, thyme, black pepper, rosemary, and salt. Set aside.

2. Prepare the Pork Roast:

   • Brush the pork roast with vegetable oil, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
   • Rub the spice mixture generously all over the meat, covering it entirely.

3. Prepare the Apples and Onions:

   • Peel, core, and slice the baking apples.
   • Peel and slice the onions.
   • Rub the sliced apples and onions with vegetable oil.

4. Roasting:

   • Place the prepared apples and onions in the roasting pan.
   • Position the seasoned pork roast on top of the apples and onions in the pan.
   • Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven, uncovered, and bake for 10 minutes.

5. Slow Roasting:

   • After 10 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).
   • Continue baking for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature of the roast reaches 155°F (68°C). This slow roasting ensures tender, juicy meat with perfectly infused flavors.

6. Resting and Gravy Preparation:

   • Once the roast is done, remove it from the oven and transfer it to a serving platter.
   • Cover the roast loosely with foil and allow it to rest for 5 minutes, allowing the juices to redistribute for maximum tenderness.
   • Meanwhile, using a blender, puree the roasted apples and onions until smooth.
   • Pour the water and apple juice into the roasting pan to deglaze, scraping up all the flavorful bits.
   • Strain the liquid into a small saucepan, discarding any solids.
   • Heat the strained liquid to a rapid simmer and add the pureed apples and onions.

7. Gravy Thickening:

   • In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry.
   • Gradually drizzle the cornstarch mixture into the simmering liquid, whisking constantly until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency. Adjust the amount of cornstarch mixture as needed.

8. Serving:

   • Slice the rested pork roast into thick slices and arrange them beautifully on the serving platter.
   • Drizzle the flavorful apple onion gravy over the sliced roast or serve it on the side in a gravy boat.
