Preheat the oven to 200-220°C. Briefly rinse the roast with cold water and pat dry with kitchen paper. Score the rind crosswise with a sharp knife. Mix salt, pepper, peeled and crushed garlic clove, caraway seeds, and thyme with a little oil and rub the roast on all sides. Place in a large roasting tin and add hot meat broth. Roast for approximately 2-2.5 hours, basting frequently. To prepare the gravy, remove the roast from the tin, pour the drippings into a saucepan, stir in flour dissolved in cold water, bring to a boil, and garnish with sour cream, if desired.
