Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Peel potato and cut into large chunks. Peel carrot and cut into bite-sized chunks. Thinly slice apple. Trim and thinly slice leek. Slice lemon into wedges. • Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. Cook potato and carrot until easily pierced with a fork, 10-15 minutes. • Drain, then return veggies to the saucepan. Add the milk, 1/2 the butter, and season generously with salt. Mash until smooth, then cover to keep warm.
Little cooks: Get those muscles working and help mash the potatoes!
• Meanwhile, combine pork loin steaks, herb & mushroom seasoning, a drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper in a medium bowl. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, cook pork until cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Transfer to a plate, cover and rest for 5 minutes.
• Wipe out the frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with the remaining butter and a drizzle of olive oil. Cook leek, stirring, until softened, 5-6 minutes. • Reduce heat to medium, then add chicken-style stock powder, cream (see ingredients) and a splash of water. Cook, stirring, until thickened, 1-2 minutes. • Add a generous squeeze of lemon juice and stir to combine.
TIP: Add a splash of water if the sauce looks too thick.
• Slice herby pork steaks. • In a second medium bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, apple and a drizzle of red wine vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste. • Divide veggie mash, pork and apple salad between plates. • Top pork and mash with creamy leek sauce to serve. Enjoy!
