Pork with cauliflowe­r mash and apple sauce

-

3 medium potatoes, peeled and chopped into 2cm cubes 250g cauliflowe­r Splash of milk 50g butter Salt and black pepper 1 x 500g pork tenderloin, cut in half 1 tsp dried thyme 300g sugarsnap peas, trimmed 2 apples, peeled, cored and chopped into 1cm cubes 2 tbsp vegetable oil 250ml chicken stock

1 Preheat the oven to 200˚C/180˚C fan/gas mark 6. 2 Place the potatoes and cauliflowe­r in a large pot with a pinch of salt and enough water to cover by 2cm. Bring to a boil and cook for 14-15 minutes until very tender. Drain and return to the pot.

3 Add the milk and half of the butter to the drained potatoes and cauliflowe­r. Mash with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth. Season with salt and pepper, set aside and keep warm. 4 Meanwhile, heat one tablespoon of oil in a large pan over high heat. Season the pork all over and sprinkle with the thyme. Add to the pan and brown on all sides. 5 Transfer the pork to one side of a large baking tray. Add the sugarsnaps to the other side, drizzle with the remaining oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 12-14 minutes or until the pork is completely cooked throughout and the sugarsnaps are tender. 6 Return the large pan to a medium heat and add the remaining butter. Once melted, add apples and cook for 6-8 minutes until golden. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the chicken stock. Turn the heat to medium-high and cook for 3-4

minutes until the apples are tender, using a wooden spoon to scrape any sticky bits from the bottom of the pan. 7 Slice the pork into medallions. Divide the cauliflowe­r mash and sugarsnaps between serving plates, then add the pork. Spoon over the apple pan sauce and serve.
