Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 °F. Rub pork with oil; season generously with salt and pepper and rub with fennel seeds, anise seeds, and red pepper flakes, pressing to adhere.

  2. Place pork roast, fat side up, on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until deeply browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 135 °F, 60 –70 minutes.

  3. Transfer to a cutting board; let pork rest at least 10 minutes before slicing.

  4. DO AHEAD: Pork can be seasoned 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.

Why this Fennel-Rubbed Pork Roast works for PCOS

Evening meals affect overnight insulin and morning blood sugar more than most women realise. Keeping dinner protein-forward and finishing eating at least 2-3 hours before bed gives your body time to clear glucose before the overnight fast, which improves morning fasting insulin readings.
