READY THE ROAST
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Boil the kettle. Spread the sweet potato pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway). Alternatively, air fry at 200°C until crispy, 20-25 minutes (shifting halfway).
FAB FILLING
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the garlic and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Add the apple, ¾ of the mustard, and ½ the lemon juice (to taste). Cook until the apple is soft, 8-10 minutes. Add the Brandy and simmer until almost evaporated, 1-2 minutes. Add ½ the cranberries and ½ the chopped Walnuts. Season and remove from the pan.
Pork CHOP
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. Place a pan over medium-high heat. When hot, sear the pork chop, fat-side down, until the fat is rendered and crispy, for 3-5 minutes. Then, fry until cooked through, for 3-4 minutes per side. In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter.
SAGE & SALAD
Return the pan to medium-high heat with 30g [60g]|#7DA0D7 of butter. Once foaming, add the rinsed sage leaves. Fry until the leaves are crispy, 1-2 minutes. In a salad bowl, combine the salad leaves, the remaining mustard, Walnuts & cranberries, the remaining lemon juice, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning.
YUM!
Plate up the Pork and top with the apple mixture. Drizzle over the sage butter. Side with the roasted sweet potato and the walnut salad. Serve any remaining filling on the side.
