LET’S GET IT STARTED!
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place a pot of cold salted water over a high heat. Add the potato pieces and bring to the boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes until slightly softened. Drain on completion. Pat the pork fillet dry with some paper towel. Add to a bowl with the soy sauce and toss until fully coated. Set aside to marinade for at least 5-10 minutes.
ROASTY FLORETS
Place the cauliflower florets on a roasting tray, coat in oil and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 20-25 minutes until cooked through and starting to crisp.
POLENTA POTATOES
When the potatoes are done, place in a bowl with a good drizzle of oil, the polenta, the chopped rosemary, and seasoning. Toss until fully coated. Place on a roasting tray and roast in the hot oven for 15-20 minutes until golden.
JUICY PORK FILLET
Place a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, sear the marinated pork fillet for 3-4 minutes, shifting and turning as it colours. On completion, the pork should be browned but not cooked through. Remove from the pan and wrap in a piece of tinfoil. Finish it off in the hot oven for 7-9 minutes until cooked to your preference. Remove on completion and allow to rest inside the tinfoil for 5 minutes before thinly slicing.
CREAMY PEPPERCORN SAUCE
Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil or knob of butter. When hot, sauté the white spring onions and drained peppercorns for 2-4 minutes until slightly caramelized. Slowly whisk in the fresh cream and leave to simmer for 4-5 minutes until slightly reduced. When the polenta potatoes are done, sprinkle over the grated cheese and toss until fully coated.
GRAB YOUR KNIFE & PORK!
