BEGIN WITH Butternut
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the Butternut discs on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
QUICK PICKLE
To a bowl, add the vinegar, 10ml of sweetener, 30ml of water, and seasoning. Mix through the Carrot & Cucumber matchsticks, and set aside. Drain the pickling liquid just before serving.
YUM PLUM SAUCE
In a smaller bowl, combine the plum sauce with the grated ginger & garlic and the chopped chilli (to taste). Set aside.
PERFECT Pork
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, 3-5 minutes. Then, fry until cooked through, 3-4 minutes per side. In the final 1-2 minutes, drain, discarding any excess oil, and baste with the spicy plum sauce. Remove from the heat and set aside.
A MEMORABLE MEAL
Plate up the roasted Butternut discs and the pickled veg. Serve the sticky pork chop alongside and drizzle with any remaining pan juices.
