Pork Cherry sauce & Tray Roasted Veg

Pork Cherry sauce & Tray Roasted Veg

It’s Prunus season. That’s Cherries first and then Plums for those who can’t be bothered with Latin names! Boneless Belly Pork at £2.19 didn’t look too promising in it’s wrapper. But it worked out really well!

Ingredients for the Tray Roast:-

Carrots
Red Onion
Mushrooms
Garlic
Plumbs
Cabbage
Chillies
Black Lime & 1/2 the juice of a Lemon
Oil
Salt & Pepper

Method:-

(1) Shake it all up with the Oil, Salt & Pepper
(2) Put it in a tray in the oven at 180C
(3) Watch some TV or have a glass of wine (We didn’t do either as we have no TV or wine!)
(4) Turn so that everything roasts evenly
(5) Serve!

Ingredients for the Cherry Sauce:-

Cherries
Soy Sauce
Cornflour
Juice of ½ a Lemon

Method:-

(1) Place everything excluding the Lemon Juice in a sauce pan and boil.
(2) Once the Cherries have softened take the sauce off the heat and press through a sieve.
(3) Add the Lemon juice and bring back to a simmer.

Belly Pork:-

Score with a knife, rub with Oil, Salt & Pepper and roast at 180C until the crackling is crispy. I’m pretty sure nobody needs in-depth instruction here!

We demolished ours we a few boiled Garlic Spuds for a change and the whole thing was really taste. Sorry about the very casual approach today, but this is a really easy, quick and tasty recipe you can do while you’re fighting with you printer, washing machine or children!

Winter Veg

We tend to get stuck in a loop with vegetables for some reason. Peas, Red Cabbage and spuds seem to have become our “Go-To” choice recently. So we thought we’d have a bit of a change yesterday. Although the Spuds are still there….

Because of the global supply network, be it a good or (more probably) bad thing the majority of regularly used vegetables are available all year round in the supermarkets and local retailers. But if you buy seasonal veg you will notice that they tend to be UK grown more often than not. This has to be a good thing surely?

So last nights veg was:-

Boiled Cabbage
Roast Parsnips
Roast Potatoes
Cauliflower

All UK grown and with a bit of slow roast Pork shoulder and home made gravy it was a meal your granny would have been proud of on a very cost effective budget.
