Cooking Steps

• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. • Cut potato into large chunks. • Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return potatoes to pan.

• Meanwhile, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 4-6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.

• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • When oil is hot, cook pork until cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Remove from heat, then add onion chutney, turning to coat. • Transfer to a plate, cover and rest for 5 minutes.

TIP: Spice blend will char slightly in pan, this adds to the flavour!

Little cooks: Take the lead by tossing the salad!
