BUTTERNUT
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the butternut pieces on a roasting tray, coat in oil, ½ the grated garlic, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway.
CHARMING CHIMICHURRI
Rinse and roughly chop the mixed herbs. In a bowl, combine the chopped herbs, the chilli flakes (to taste), the remaining garlic, seasoning, and ½ the white wine vinegar. Slowly whisk in oil until a drizzling consistency.
PERFECT PORK FILLET
When the butternut is halfway, place a nonstick pan over a medium-high heat. Pat the pork fillet dry with some paper towel. Coat in oil, and seasoning. When the pan is hot, sear the pork for 3-4 minutes, shifting and turning as it colours. In the final minute, baste with a knob of butter and the rub. On completion, it should be browned all over but not cooked through. Remove from the pan and wrap in a piece of tinfoil. Finish it off in the 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.
SPECTACULAR SLAW
In a salad bowl, whisk the remaining white wine vinegar, ½ tsp of a sweetener of choice, a drizzle of olive oil and some seasoning. Add the sliced cabbage and apple matchsticks and toss until fully coated.
