START THE ROAST
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the butternut pieces and rinsed rosemary on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, season to taste, and spread out evenly. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes. Place the drained Chickpeas in a bowl, coat in oil and seasoning, and set aside.
PAN-FRIED Pork
Boil the kettle. Dilute the stock with 100ml of boiling water and set aside. Place the Cornflour in a shallow dish. Pat the pork schnitzel dry with some paper towel and season to taste. Coat in the cornflour, gently patting it into the flesh so it sticks evenly. Lightly dust to remove excess flour and set aside. Place a nonstick pan over a medium-high heat with a generous drizzle of oil. When hot, pan fry the schnitzel for 1 minute per side until crispy but not cooked through. Remove from the pan on completion and drain on paper towel.
TOASTY Chickpeas
When the butternut reaches the halfway mark, remove from the oven and give it a shift. Scatter over the Chickpeas and return to the oven for the remaining cooking time. On completion, the chickpeas should be crispy and the butternut should be cooked through and caramelised.
SIMMER THE SAUCE
Return the pan to a medium heat with another drizzle of oil. When hot, sauté the sliced Onion for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent. Add the grated garlic and three-quarters of the chopped Capers. Fry for another minute, shifting constantly. Stir in the diluted stock and allow to simmer for 3-4 minutes until reduced. If the sauce doesn’t thicken enough, gradually whisk in the remaining Cornflour until the desired consistency. When nearing completion, return the schnitzels to the pan and baste with the sauce until cooked through. On completion, remove from the heat and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
ASSEMBLE THE SALAD
Set aside one half of the rinsed apple for another meal. Cut the other half into thin matchsticks and place in a bowl with the rinsed salad leaves. Toss through some cab sauv vinegar, a drizzle of oil, and some seasoning. When the roast is ready, remove from the oven and discard the thick rosemary stalks.
