ROAST PORK WITH APPLE SAUCE

Ingredients .....2kg boned leg of pork, salt for crackling, 4 green apples, squeeze of lemon juice. Ask your butcher to score the skin of the boned pork. Preheat your oven to 200deg C. Then rub a liberal/excessive amount of salt into the scored skin.(There is no need for oil or water). Place the salted pork on a wire rack inside of a roasting pan. Roast in the preheated oven until the rind turns golden, dries and looks crackly. Continue to cook for a further 10 minutes. To check the pork is cooked , pierce the thickest part of the meat with a knife if the juices run clear , the pork is ready.. While the pork is cooking, prepare your apple sauce. Peel, core and slice your apples, place into a small saucepan with 3 tbs of water, simmer gently until the apples are soft. Now gently mash to a pulp and add a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve the apple sauce alongside the pork, the perfect combination, with hot vegetables of your choosing.
