ROAST Butternut
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the Butternut pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
GRILL THE FRUIT
Place a pan or griddle pan over high heat. When hot, add the stone fruit wedges and fry until charred, 1-2 minutes. In a salad bowl, mix the Dressing, a sweetener, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Add the grilled stone fruit and set aside.
Pork CHOPS
Pat the Pork chop dry with paper towel. Using a pair of kitchen scissors or a knife, make a few shallow incisions along the fat to prevent the meat from buckling during frying. Coat in oil and season. Return the pan to medium-high heat. When hot, sear the pork chop, fat-side down, until the fat is rendered and crispy, 3-5 minutes. Then, fry until cooked through, 3-4 minutes per side. In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter.
JUST BEFORE SERVING
To the bowl with the stone fruit, add the tomato wedges, the Cucumber half-moons, the roasted Butternut, and the shredded leaves, and toss to combine.
