Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9 / air fryer 200C
- Line a large baking tray with parchment paper
- Pull out a peeler, a measuring jug, a large frying pan & a medium bowl
Golden sweet potatoes
- Cut the sweet potatoes into wedges (peel optional)
- Place onto the lined baking tray and toss with 2 tsp oil and a pinch of salt and pepper
- Bake for 25-30 mins / air fryer 20-25 mins, until soft and golden
Simmer the pork
- Thinly slice the spring onions
- Heat the large frying pan with 2 tsp oil on high heat. Once hot, add the pork and cook for 4 mins per side, until golden brown
- Add the whole tomatoes, half the spring onion, the Jerk seasoning and tomato puree. Cook for another 1 min, then stir in half the honey and 250ml water. Season with salt and pepper
- Simmer for 11 mins, until the sauce thickens and the pork is cooked through
Make the mango slaw
- Peel and dice the mango into 1cm chunks. Trim and thinly slice the cabbage
- Place both into the medium bowl, along with the vinegar, the remaining honey and spring onion and 1 tbsp oil. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine and set aside
Last bits & plate up
- Finely chop the coriander. Deseed and thinly slice the chilli
- 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 half the coriander through the slaw, and stir the remaining through the pork
- Serve the Jerk pork onto plates, with the slaw and sweet potato wedges alongside. Spoon over any remaining sauce from the pan. Garnish with the chilli (for those who'd like it)
