In this simple one-pot dish boneless pork tenderloin is cooked on a bed of carrots and parsnips for an all-in-one dish that makes an impressive centrepiece for a holiday meal or Sunday dinner. Choose free-range pork if possible – the flavour really shines with little more seasoning than a little thyme and a sprinkle of sea salt. If you want to dress the meal up with a traditional Irish apple condiment – Ploughman’s chutney or Bramley apple sauce are available from specialist shops and online.
