Ingredients

• 1 x Organic Spiced Apple Pork Joint (1.2kg or 2.4kg)

• Eversfield’s own Spiced Apple Glaze (included)

• 2 tbsp organic olive oil

• 2 garlic cloves, chopped

• 1 onion, quartered

• Sea salt & freshly ground black pepper

Optional extras:

• A splash of organic cider or apple juice for the roasting tin

• Fresh sage leaves for garnish

Method

1. Get ready
   Take the pork out of the fridge an hour before cooking. Preheat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan) / Gas 7.

2. Season well
   Rub the joint with olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Pop it in a roasting tin with the onion around it and roast for 20 minutes to get a golden crust.

3. Roast gently
   Turn the oven down to 180°C (160°C fan) / Gas 4. Add a splash of cider or apple juice to keep it moist. Roast for 25 minutes per 500g plus 20 minutes extra:

   • 1.2kg joint: around 1 hour 20 minutes

   • 2.4kg joint: around 2 hours 20 minutes

4. Glaze it up
   In the final 30 minutes, brush the pork with our Spiced Apple Glaze, topping up every 10 minutes for a glossy, sticky finish.

5. Rest and enjoy
   Cover loosely with foil and let it rest for 20 minutes before carving.

Serving Suggestions

• Carve into slices and serve with roast potatoes, seasonal veg, and red cabbage for a family-style feast.

• A splash of gravy made from the roasting juices or a little extra cider ties it all together.

• Pair with a glass of organic cider or mulled apple juice for a cosy festive touch.
