Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
  • Line a large baking tray with parchment paper
  • Pull out a medium frying pan, a medium bowl, a small bowl & a grater

Get started

  • Cut the potatoes into wedges and add to the lined baking tray. Toss with 1 tsp oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast for 10 mins
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice half the onion, then cut the remaining into 1cm wedges. Thinly slice the pepper. Zest half the lemon, then cut into 6 wedges
  • In the medium bowl, combine the sliced onion, the juice from 2 lemon wedges and a pinch of salt. Set aside

Roast the veg & fry the pork

  • After 10 mins, add the onion wedges and pepper to the potato tray. Toss together with half the oregano and roast for a further 15-20 mins, until soft and golden
  • Heat the medium frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork and cook for 6 mins per side, until golden brown. Season with salt and pepper

Make the tahini yoghurt & build the flavour

  • Finely chop or crush the garlic
  • In the small bowl, combine the tahini, yoghurt, half the garlic, the juice from 1 lemon wedge and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well, taste and season with more lemon, salt and pepper if needed
  • After 12 mins, sprinkle the pork with the fennel seeds, remaining oregano, remaining garlic and a pinch of lemon zest. Turn to coat. Push the potato and veg to one side of the baking tray, then transfer the pork to the other side and bake for 8 mins, until cooked through. Remove the pork from the tray and leave to rest

Last bits

  • Slice the cucumber into 1/2 cm thick half-moons and add to the onion bowl
  • Check your meat is cooked through; it should be golden brown, steaming hot, the juices should run clear when cut and there should be no pink / rare meat inside

Toss & plate up

  • When ready to serve, toss the rocket through the onion and cucumber
  • Spoon the tahini yoghurt onto plates and top with the pork. Share the wedges, roast veg and salad alongside. Serve with the remaining lemon wedges and tahini yoghurt on the side
