Ingredients
- 500 g pork loin
- 3 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
- 1/2 tsp rosemary, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp cider vinegar
- 1 1/2 tbsp oil
Pickled peaches
- 1 1/4 cups cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 stick cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 4 whole cloves
- 1 cm ginger, peeled, sliced
- 3 ripe firm peaches, washed, halved, sliced
Method
- 1Preheat oven to 250°C. Pat pork dry with paper towels. In a small bowl combine the brown sugar, mustard, rosemary, vinegar and oil.
- 2Place pork in the centre of a roasting pan and drizzle with half the glaze. Roast for 25-30 minutes, drizzling with remaining glaze halfway through cooking.
- 3Meanwhile, make the Pickled peaches (see below).
- 4When meat is cooked (pork should be at least 62°C on a meat thermometer), move to a carving board. Tent with foil to rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- 5Serve pork with Pickled peaches.
Pickled peaches
- 6In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the vinegar, honey, sugar and spices. Heat for 2-3 minutes or until the sugar dissolves. Add peaches and simmer for 2 minutes. Put the ginger in the bottom of a 1 litre preserving jar, then fill with the peaches. Pour the liquid over the peaches. Seal with a lid and place in the refrigerator. Can be eaten immediately, but peaches improve after 2 weeks.
Notes
Try pickled peaches on a cheese board, with barbecued meat or cold ham, or instead of a chutney. You could use pork fillet in this recipe.
