Cooking Instructions and Tips

Prep veggies.
1

Boil your kettle. Cut the bottom root and the top dark green part off the leek. Cut in half lengthways then slice into half moon shapes (about ½cm wide). Cut the top and bottom off one of the apples, slice into two rounds per person, then remove the middle with a sharp knife. Peel the other apple, remove the core and then chop into small ½cm chunks. Put the tenderstem broccoli on a baking tray and drizzle over some oil, a pinch of salt and a grind of black pepper. Leave to the side. Preheat your oven to 200 degrees.

2

Dissolve the chicken stock pot in a jug of boiling water (amount specified in the ingredient list).

3

Put a large saucepan on medium heat with a drizzle of oil and add your leek and chopped apple (leave your apple rounds for later). Cook for 5-7 mins until soft, then add the couscous, olive oil (amount specified in the ingredient list) and stock. Stir together. Once your couscous mixture has come to the boil, put a lid on the pan, take it off the heat and leave to the side for 10 mins or until everything else is ready.

Prep pork.
4

Cut the pork in half through the middle to make two medallions per person. Lay the bacon rashers on a board and place one pork medallion on top of each bacon rasher. Divide the wholegrain mustard between your medallions so you have a dollop on each, then lay an apple round on top of your mustard. Fold your bacon over your apple to form a parcel.

Roast pork parcels.
5

Put a frying pan on medium-high heat and add a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add each pork parcel, apple-side down. Cook for 2-3 mins until golden brown, then turn over and cook on the other side for the same amount of time. Once done, pop them on a lined baking tray on the top shelf of your oven for 7-10 mins. Tip: The pork is cooked when it is no longer pink in the middle.

6

Pop your broccoli on the second shelf of your oven, at the same time as your pork parcels, for 7 mins.

7

While your pork parcels and broccoli are cooking, remove the sage leaves from their stalks and roughly chop them. Once your couscous is ready, fluff it up with a fork and stir through your sage.

8

When everything is ready, serve your appley leek couscous on plates with your pork parcels on top and your broccoli on the side. Enjoy!
