Pork Steak with a Miso, Ginger and Orange Sauce, Broccoli and Stir Fried Beansprouts

I love orange and pork together it’s traditionally with duck but I think pork is just a good. The miso really compliments the orange. Its also a nice quick dinner too. I had run out of noodles as that’s what I was going to serve this with but I had a tin of beansprouts in…

Pork Meatloaf with a Tomato Glaze

This meatloaf is delicious and lasts for a dinner and cold as a lunch with salad. The apricots add sweetness and the prosciutto saltiness. Being British I used that brand of ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. I also used lean pork so it wasn’t too greasy as the loaf tin is lined with the ham. Old…

Stir Fried Pork Fillet with Peppers, Nuts, Mint, Basil and Broccoli

I love a stir fry particularly when you have had a long day. The prep takes a bit of time but the cooking is so quick. This stir fry was fresh vibrant and really tasty. It was much lighter as it only has lime juice and fish sauce. Pork fillet works perfectly in a stir…

Gammon Steaks with a Warm Potato and Broccoli Salad

I always think gammon is seen as a really old fashioned ingredient. It does remind me of my childhood particularly my nan. This potato salad is going to be such a go to it was so yummy and really simple to make. It has everything, its got a bit of crunch from the gherkins and…

Herb and Walnut Crusted Pork Fillet with a Cream Cheese Sauce

This dish was so delicious and would be perfect for a dinner party. All the flavours work really well. As you are crusting the pork it kept it really moist. I’d usually do a mushroom sauce but fancied something different. I had some cream cheese in the fridge and thought it would just be the…

Pork Stuffed Cabbage Rolls on a Cherry Tomato and Garlic Sauce

I have wanted to make these for a few of years and I have finally got round to doing it. I first tried mine in Germany they had rice and a mix of beef and pork mince. I thought they were a little heavy so I made mine without the rice and just pork. I…

Tenderising Pork Brine

This is the equivalent to buttermilk chicken. I always think pork chops can be a little bit stringy and slightly chewy. I don’t like eating pork pink so this is such a good way to keep the pork nice and moist without worrying about cooking it too much. You can put any aromatics in it….

Pork Chops, Sauteed Brussels Sprouts and Chestnuts with a Cider and Mustard Sauce

The much divided brussel sprouts are back in season! I love them as long as they aren’t over cooked like in my childhood. I eat them in all different formats, shaved raw in a salad, roasted, plain etc. This dish is a match made in heaven for me. Juicy pork chops with roasted fatty bits….

Leftover Pork Stir Fry with Cauliflower Rice and Char Siu Sauce

If you’ve got some leftover pork or chicken, this is delicious. This recipe has loads of flavour and it’s so quick an easy to make. You can just chuck in any vegetables you have, fresh or frozen. I used a mix of both. I was tired from a long day at work and this was…

Miso Tan Tan Ramen with Black Bean Pork

I had never heard of tan tan noodles before until I saw them on a program called great British takeaways. It got really good reviews from the public who ate it so I just had to give it a go. I started some research and came across a really good recipe that used soy milk…

Slow Roasted Crispy Crackling Pork Belly with Fennel Seeds and a Rhubarb BBQ Sauce

This recipe is mind blowing, the pork was amazing and the crackling so crispy and tasty. I love fennel seeds and they go so well with pork. As this was a special dinner I wanted a nice sauce to go with so settled on bbq rhubarb. I must say though the shallot gravy underneath the…

Delicious Herb and Mustard Crusted Roast Pork

I got this joint reduced and would normally do a slow pulled pork recipe in the slow cooker but as it was cheap I decided to do a simple roast. It was amazing I was naughty and did Yorkshire pudding with it which made it even more scrumptious. The pork was so juicy but retained…

Pork Fillet Saltimbocca with Jersey Royals

Sometimes it is so nice to have an old fashioned simple meal. This recipe is easy to make and all the flavours are so comforting. I grew my own sage this year and it tasted so fresh and who doesn’t like crispy prosciutto. I’m also making most of the jersey royals they are so creamy…

Wild Garlic, Leek and Thyme Pork Pies (no gelatine)

So I’m still making the most of my foraged wild garlic. I will post my salt, oil and pickled buds next but I had to share these pork pies first as they were so delicious. Being British I love a pork pie but I’m not keen on the massive jelly layer or claggy pastry, so…

Fake Away Friday Crispy Sweet and Sour Pork

I love all the crispy Chinese dishes such as crispy chilli beef, crispy duck and pancakes, pancake rolls, sweet and sour king prawn and the list goes on. We have a new butchers that has opened in our town so we went to check it out and I noticed they had some pork stir fry…
