Ingredients

300g Frozen Mango, defrosted and larger chunks halved

1 Red Chilli, deseeded and sliced

1 Lime, zested and juiced

2 Spring Onions, sliced

5g Fresh Coriander, chopped

1tbsp Cajun Spice

1tsp Paprika

2tbsp Runny Honey

4tbsp Rapeseed Oil, plus extra for the roasting tray

4–6 Pork Steaks

50ml White Wine

150ml Low Salt Chicken Stock

700g Sweet Potatoes, cut into wedges

1tbsp Dried Rosemary

120g Rocket or Watercress, to serve

Method

1
For the mango salsa, toss together the mango, chilli, lime, spring onions and coriander in a bowl, then cover and chill for up to 1 day before serving. In a separate bowl, add the Cajun spice, paprika, honey and 1tbsp oil. Season to taste and mix well. Brush the glaze over the pork steaks, cover and marinate for 1 hr in the fridge or overnight.
2
Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Add the steaks to a large oiled roasting tray and place in the oven for 5 mins. Take the steaks out of the oven and turn the temperature down to 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4. Pour in the wine and stock and put back in the oven to cook for 2 hrs or until soft.
3
When the steaks have 40 mins left add 1tbsp of oil to a separate baking tray and put in the oven for 5 mins to heat up. Take the tray out of the oven and add the sweet potato wedges. Sprinkle over the dried rosemary, another 1tbsp oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss so the potatoes are evenly coated. Return to the oven to cook for 40 mins, turning them after 20 mins to ensure they cook evenly.
4
Serve the steaks with the glaze, a handful of sweet potato wedges, mango salsa and rocket.
