Updated: 12 Nov 2016
Ingredients
- 400g pork fillet / tenderloin
- 1 large onion
- 14 slices parma ham (2 packs)
- 2 sausages, skin removed
- Small bunch fresh sage
-
30g fresh breadcrumbs
-
40g unsalted butter
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp plain flour
- 150ml white wine
- 400ml double cream
- 2x 400g tin butter beans, drained and rinsed
- 260g young leaf spinach
- Parsley
- Squeeze lemon juice
Method
- Heat the oven to 200c fan. Heat a glub of oil in large frying pan and add the pork. Fry for 3-4 minutes over a high heat to sear all over, then set the pork aside on a board. Leave the pan on the hob.
- Lower the heat, then add a quarter of the onion and fry for 5 minutes iuntil it starts to soften.
- Lay out the parma ham on a work surface, overlappying each piece, to make a rectangle the length of the pork.
- Put the softened onion to one side to cool. Keep the frying pan for later.
- Once the onion has cooled, mi with the sausagemeat, sage and breadcurmbs. Season with salt and pepper.
- Slice the pork lengthways about three quarters of the way through, then open it out like a book. Top with the stuffing, then sandwich together, packing in the stuffing as best you can.
- Put the prok on top of the ham, then wrap the ham around to enclose the pork and secure te stuffing.
- Put the prok in a roasting tray, then roast for 20 minutes at 200c. (See step 10). After this turn the oven down to 180c and roast for a further 20 minutes, until a digital thermometer pushed into the thickest part reads 72-75c.
- (Set aside to rest for 5 minutes, then slice.)
- Once the prok has had half its cooking time, start the beans. Set the frying pan back on the heat and melt some butter. Add the onion and fry for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and flour then stir for 2-3 minutes. Add the wine then turn up the heat and simmer for 5 minutes to reduce the liquid. Add the cream and the butterbeans, then the spinach (in batches, stirring until it wilts). Season and add the parlsey and lemon.
- Serve with fresh veg e.g. baby sweetcorn (microwave for 2 mins 30 secs).
