ROAST WEDGES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the carrot wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
PREP & SALAD
Roughly chop ¼ of the pineapple. In a small bowl, combine the mustard, ½ the apple juice, 15ml of olive oil, and a splash of water. In a salad bowl, toss together the rinsed green leaves, the cucumber half-moons, the chopped pineapple, and ½ the mustard dressing. Set aside. In a small bowl, combine the remaining apple juice, 10ml of sweetener, and a splash of water. Set aside.
FRY THE SKEWERS
Pat the pork kassler dry with paper towel. Cut the pork kassler and the remaining pineapple into chunks (big enough for the skewers). Discard any excess fat from the pork kassler. Carefully thread the pineapple & pork kassler cubes onto each skewer. Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the skewers until crispy and charred, 6-8 minutes (shifting as they colour). In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with sweetened apple juice. Remove from the pan and set aside.
