Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons dried mixed herbs
  • 25g plain flour
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper
  • 450g pork fillet (tenderloin), cut into chunks
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 celery sticks
  • 1 medium apple, cored and chopped
  • 500ml reduced-salt vegetable or chicken stock
  • 4 teaspoons lower-fat spread
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 1 baguette, cut to give about 15 slices
  • 20g reduced-fat mature cheddar cheese, grated

Directions

1

Sprinkle the dried mixed herbs, pepper and flour onto a plate and mix. Roll the cubes of pork in this mixture. Preheat the oven to 180C (160C fan, gas mark 4).

2

Heat the oil in a flameproof casserole dish. Add the pork, onion, celery and apple, and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring well.

3

Add the stock and bring to the boil. Once bubbling, remove from the heat, cover and cook in the oven for 75 minutes.

4

Once the casserole has been in the oven for about 70 minutes, make the topping. Mix together the low-fat spread and garlic, then spread on the slices of bread.

5

Remove the dish from the oven. Arrange the bread on top of the casserole, spread-side up, and sprinkle over the cheese. Return to the oven, without a lid, to bake for another 10 to 15 minutes until browned. Information: Use finely grated parmesan instead of cheddar, if you prefer.

6

Once cooked, leave to cool for a few minutes before dividing into bowls. Tuck in and enjoy! Information: Serve with a portion of your favorite green veg – like broccoli, green beans or spinach – to help towards your 5 A Day.
