Recipe Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large sprig rosemary
- 4 garlic cloves, sliced
- 750g piece pork fillet, trimmed
- 500g chat potatoes
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 4 slices prosciutto
- Rocket leaves, to serve
- Salt, to season
Balsamic dressing
- 2 1/2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 1/2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tsp grainy mustard
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 190°C.
Step 2
Mix 1 tablespoon of the olive oil with the rosemary leaves and sliced garlic. Brush a little over the pork fillet.
Step 3
Par-boil the potatoes for 10 minutes, then drain and lightly crush. Toss the potatoes and onion wedges with the remaining garlic and rosemary oil, then place on a large baking tray and roast in the oven for 25 minutes, turning occasionally.
Step 4
Meanwhile, heat the remaining olive oil in a frypan over medium-high heat. Add the pork fillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, turning to brown all over. Season well with salt and pepper.
Step 5
Remove the pork and add to the baking tray with the potatoes and onion, and roast for the remaining cooking time (20 minutes). For the final 5 minutes, add the slices of prosciutto to the tray to crisp.
Step 6
While everything is cooking, make the dressing. Place the olive oil, balsamic, and mustard in a jar and season with salt and pepper. Shake well.
Step 7
To serve, place some rocket onto each plate and divide the potatoes and onion among them. Slice the pork thickly, place on top, and drizzle with the balsamic dressing. Place a shard of crisp prosciutto on top of each.
