The classic combination of pork and apple is really hard to beat and so is this recipe featuring pork scotch fillet from Western Australian regenerative farming company Ynamah Pastured Raised Pork (available through Dirty Clean Food) and WA’s own Bravo apples. It’s also a great recipe for entertaining and can be displayed on a large platter to the table to great effect.

Ingredients

Marinade

  • 1 Tbsp olive oil

  • 3 Tbsp honey

  • 2 Tbsp Dijon mustard

  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 bravo apple, julienne

  • 1 purple shallot, thinly sliced

  • 1 tsp dijon

  • ½ tsp honey

Method

  1. Preheat oven 200℃

  6. Flip pork fillets and roast for a further 10-12 minutes then allow to rest, covered, for at least five minutes.

Meanwhile

  1. Cook lentils to packet instructions, drain and allow to cool. This could be done the day before.

  2. Combine all salad ingredients in a large bowl and toss.

  3. Combine dressing ingredients in a jar with a tight fitting lid and shake until well combined before dressing the salad.

  4. Toss the salad to coat with dressing.

  5. Slice the pork across the grain and serve with the lentil salad.

Cooks Notes

If you’re cooking for a crowd, simply double the ingredients and display the salad next to the sliced pork on a large platter. It will present beautifully.

If preparing this recipe for a crowd, you could prepare marinade the day before and marinate the pork overnight in the refrigerator to get ahead.

If you are cooking the pork straight away, cover then leave it on the bench to marinate and come to room temp prior to cooking.
