Bacon Wrapped Pork Fillet With Maple & Mustard Glaze
Serves:

Preparation Time: 
20 mins
Cooking Time: 
30 mins
Ingredients: 
  • 1 x 500g pork fillet, trimmed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 8-10 slices streaky bacon (see tip)
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons seeded mustard
  • Steamed green beans and snow peas, to serve
Method: 
  1. Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced.
  2. Pat pork dry with paper towel. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
  4. Add pork and brown, turning occasionally, until evenly golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
  5. Lay bacon vertically on a clean work surface, slightly overlapping each slice. Place pork onto the bacon at one end. Wrap bacon over the pork to enclose it and form a neat roll. Gently squeeze to secure the bacon and secure with toothpicks along the base. Place pork onto a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  6. Combine maple syrup and mustard in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Brush bacon with mixture.
  7. Roast, brushing with the pan juices once or twice, for 20-25 minutes for just pink pork (tested with a meat thermometer at 65°C).
  8. Slice pork. Drizzle with the pan juices. Serve with beans and snow peas.
