• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut potato into fries.
• Place fries on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat.
• Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.

When fries have 10 minutes remaining, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until slightly golden, 3-4 minutes. Add pulled pork and cook, stirring, 1-2 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium, stir in BBQ sauce, baby spinach leaves and the water until combined and heated through, 1-2 minutes.
Season to taste.

TIP: Add a splash more water if the filling looks dry!

TIP: Seasoning is key in this dish, so taste and season with more salt and pepper if needed.

• Microwave pita bread on a microwave-safe plate for 1 minute, until warmed through.
• Carefully cut open pita bread and fill with BBQ pulled pork and Cheddar cheese.
• Toast pita bread in a sandwich press for 2-3 minutes, until cheese is melted.

• Divide cheesy BBQ pulled pork and bacon pita pockets and potato fries between plates.
