A slice of this pretty pork roll is like a slice of sunshine on your plate. Pork and pineapple surprisingly works great together.The fresh, fruity and sweet flavours of the filling make the perfect accompaniment to lean pork, making it a dish with a difference. It would make an impressive main if you have guests over, or want to try your hand at a new recipe, but it’s also best served cold as part of a salad.

For a more savoury filling, replace the pineapple with chopped finely courgette or green pepper.

Ingredients

500g piece pork fillet, trimmed of fat
1tbsp freshly chopped thyme
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
150g fresh or canned pineapple, finely chopped
1 large red pepper, deseeded and finely chopped
8 rashers smoked streaky bacon
Fresh thyme to garnish

Method

Pre-heat oven to 190°C/375°F/Fan 170°C/Gas Mark 5. Wash and pat dry the pork fillet. Slice the fillet lengthwise to within 1cm of the other side. Place on a board and flatten with a meat mallet or cling film wrapped rolling pin, to a thickness of about 6mm.
Season the pork with salt and pepper and sprinkle over the chopped thyme. Mix the pineapple and pepper together and spread down the centre of the pork and roll up.
Carefully wrap the bacon around the pork, overlapping the slices to help hold the pork together, and then tie with clean pieces of string to secure. Place in a roasting tin and bake for 35-40 mins until tender and cooked through. Leave to cool, then wrap and chill for at least 2hrs.
To serve, discard the string, and cut into chunky slices. Garnish with fresh thyme and serve with salad vegetables.

Chana masala

This is a mildly curried side dish to serve alongside a meat or chicken curry, or can be served as a light vegetarian supper on it’s own. Take care to use a mild chilli powder and add sparingly – you can always add more later, but you can’t take it away! If you like hot food add a little chopped fresh red chilli or chilli flakes when frying off the spices. A little fresh coriander is delicious sprinkled over this Chana Masala just before serving.

Serves: 4-6
Prep time: 5 mins
Cooking time: 15 mins
Total time: 20 mins
Skill level: Easy peasy
Costs: Cheap as chips

If you wish to use dried chick peas you will need to soak them overnight in cold water then drain and place in a large pan, cover with water, bring to the boil, boil for 15 mins then reduce the heat and simmer until tender. Do not add salt until the end of cooking time as this will toughen the skins.

Ingredients

2 onions, diced
2tbsp sunflower oil
3cm piece root ginger, grated
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1tsp garam masala
1/2tsp mild chilli powder
400g can tomatoes
2x 400g can chick peas, drained
1 lime
Warmed Nann bread or chapattis to serve

Method

Fry the onions in the sunflower oil over a low heat for 5 mins until softened. Add the ginger, garlic, garam masala and chilli powder and fry for just 1 minute to release the flavours.
Add the tomatoes and chick peas and bring to the boil. Cover and simmer for 10 mins. Season with salt, black pepper and a squeeze of lime juice, to taste
Slice the remaining lime and serve alongside the Chana masala.
