Ingredients

1 x 450g lean British pork fillet, sinew removed and cut into large chunks

2 tablespoons plain flour 

1 tablespoon vegetable oil 

2 medium white onions, peeled and diced 

3 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped 

2 carrots, peeled and sliced 

1 celery stick, sliced 

200g mushrooms, cleaned and sliced 

600ml hot chicken stock 

2 sage leaves  

2 teaspoons dried herbs de Provence or mixed herbs

2 apples, deseeded and chopped 

2 handfuls of fresh kale 

100ml double cream 

For the mash: 

5 Maris Piper potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes  

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 

40g salted butter 

50ml double cream

Method

Step 1

In a large bowl coat the pork in the flour and season with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish until hot. Add the pork and brown for about 5 minutes. Preheated the oven at 180°C, 160°C Fan, Gas Mark 4.

Step 3

Add the onion, garlic, carrots and celery. Once they start to soften add in the mushrooms, stock, sage and dried herbs. 

Step 4

Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and bake in the oven for 2½ hours, adding more stock if needed and stir every 30 mins.

Step 5

30 mins before the end of the cooking time add the apples, kale and cream. 

Step 6

Meanwhile, prepare your mashed potato by boiling your potatoes for 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are tender. Drain in a colander and allow to steam for a minute. This helps your mash stay nice and fluffy. 

Step 7

Once the potatoes are mashed, season, add the mustard, butter and cream and mash again to combine.  

Step 8

Serve the casserole with the mash and enjoy!!
