Roast pork fillet/tenderloin

Main Serves 3 35 min
This makes an excellent simple dinner for two or three and is far less fuss than pan-frying. It's good with green beans and spuds in most forms. Or you could roast a tray of root veg at the same time and have these and the pork with a green salad.

Ingredients

  • 1 pork fillet
  • mustard powder
  • 2 sage leaves
  • 2 streaky bacon rashers

Method

Prep time: 5 min
Cooking time: 30 min

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 220°C/Gas 8. Turn over the tail of the pork fillet to make a reasonably even cylinder and season with salt and pepper and a sprinkle of mustard powder.

  • Step 2

    Place a couple of sage leaves then a couple of slices of streaky bacon along the top. Wrap in tin foil and roast in a hot oven for 30 minutes. Allow to rest and carve into medallions.
