  1. CARROT LIVE WITHOUT YOU!

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the carrot chunks and rinsed thyme sprigs on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes. Place ½ the tomatoes in a bowl and toss with oil and seasoning. Set aside for step 3.

  2. POPPIN’ SEEDS & KALE

    Place the pumpkin seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until they begin to pop and turn brown. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool. Place the shredded kale in a bowl with a drizzle of oil and seasoning. Using your hands, gently massage until softened and coated. Return the pan to a medium-high heat. When hot, sauté the kale for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from the pan and place in the bowl, cover and set aside.

  3. HALFWAY!

    When the carrots have been in for 10 minutes, give them a shift. Add the dressed tomatoes to the roasting tray and roast for the remaining time. On completion, the carrots should be caramelised and the tomatoes blistered.

  4. STICKY PORK

    Return the pan to a medium-high heat. Pat the pork dry with paper towel and lightly coat in oil. When the pan is hot, sear the pork for 3-4 minutes, shifting as it colours. In the final 1-2 minutes, baste the pork with the honey-mustard sauce in the pan. On completion, the pork should be browned but not cooked through. Place the pork into tinfoil, pour over the pan juices, and tightly close. Place on the roasting tray in the oven for 2-3 minutes until cooked through. Remove on completion and allow to rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing and seasoning. Reserve the honey-mustard juices.

  5. LETTUCE FINISH

    On completion, remove the veg from the oven and discard the thyme stalks. Place the roasted carrot in a bowl with a splash of milk or water and a knob of butter (optional). Mash with a fork until chunky and season to taste. Halve the remaining, raw tomatoes. Add them and the rinsed leaves to the bowl of sautéed kale. Crumble in the drained feta and toss together with the red wine vinegar, a drizzle of oil and some seasoning.

  6. PLATE UP!

    Make a bed of carrot mash, top with the glossy pork, and drizzle over the reserved honey-mustard juices. Serve the kale salad on the side and scatter with roasted tomatoes. Sprinkle over the toasted pumpkin seeds. Gorgeous, Chef!
