Roast Pork with crispy crackling and glazed vegetables
Ingredients
2kg rolled pork loin, skin scored
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon sea salt flakes
½ cup (125ml) Rosella Fruit Chutney
Plums, peaches, pears and apples, halved (see tips)
Extra sprigs of thyme
Method
Remove string from pork and place skin-side down onto a clean dry board. Slice through thickest part of pork horizontally, without cutting all the way through. Open out to form one large piece
Press apple and fruit chutney stuffing along the centre. Roll pork to enclose stuffing, securing with kitchen string every 5cm
Place pork skin-side up into a large roasting pan. Pat dry with paper towel. Drizzle over 1 tablespoon of oil and rub with salt. Roast for 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 160°C (fan-forced) and roast for a further 60 minutes
Meanwhile, combine fruit chutney and oil. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange fruit over a lined baking tray and brush with chutney glaze. Scatter over fresh thyme. Cook for 30-40 minutes
Remove pork from oven and cover loosely with foil. Set aside for 15 mins to rest. Slice pork thinly and serve with roasted fruit
Tips & Hints
Use any seasonal fruits. Try apples and pears in winter or stone fruit in summer
To get the best crackling, stuff and roll the pork. Pat the pork rind dry and leave in the refrigerator for 2-24 hours uncovered
Internal temperature for cooked pork should be 63-65°C
Rest pork for the full 15 minutes. The pork will continue to cook and it will make carving easier
To cook in an air fryer, place roast into the air fryer basket with the rind up. Cook on 200°C for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 180°C and cook for nominated time. Transfer the roast to a carving board or plater & rest for 10 minutes. Carve and serve
To calculate cook time, add 25 minutes for every 500g of pork
