Instructions

Cook the Pork
1

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. 

b) Remove the pork shoulder from the packaging. Place in an ovenproof dish along with the juices. Season with salt and pepper and cover loosely with foil.

c) When the oven is hot, roast on the middle shelf for 25-30 mins. IMPORTANT: Ensure the pork is piping hot throughout. 

Caramelise the Onion
2

a) Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the onion. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium heat.

b) Once hot, add the onion, season with salt and pepper and fry, stirring occasionally, until golden, 10-12 mins. 

c) Once the onion has softened, add the sugar (see pantry for amount) and cook until caramelised, 1-2 mins more.

Toast the Bread
3

a) While the onion fries, combine in a medium bowl the coleslaw mix and mayo. Season with salt and pepper. 

Toast the Ciabatta
4

a) Grate the cheese.

b) Halve the ciabatta. 

c) Pop the ciabatta into the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins.

Shred the Pork
5

a) Meanwhile, remove the cooked pork from the oven, then discard the foil and any cooking juices. Use two forks to gently break apart the pork.

b) Spread the apple and sage jelly over each lid and
base of the toasted ciabatta halves.

Build your Sandwich
6

a) Top each base with the caramelised onion, followed by the pulled pork.

b) Arrange the cheese on top of the pork and, if you'd like to, pop it back into the oven until the cheese has melted, 2-3 mins.

c) Top the cheese with the coleslaw, then sandwich on the ciabatta lids. Share between 2 serving plates to finish.

Enjoy!
