    I use both pork and italian herb seasoning and find it gives a much better flavour

    Sophisticated and tasty. I inlcuded the apple at the first stage, with the vegetables. I also tried the recipe with different types of vegetables: potatoes and carrots.... delicious.

    Loved it! Not much work to prepare but tastes like you spent hours on it. My husband hates pork fillet but loved the recipe and my 1 year and 3 year old children polished it off in a flash.

    Wow! Tried this recipe and it's really yummy! The vegetables and the meat caramelise slightly and taste absolutely delicious. I followed the recipe as it is, and both my son and husband enjoyed this dish. Fortunately there was some leftover for me to finish today :)

    Was disappointed by this dish. The pork itself doesn't have much taste to it and the juice was somewhat like a plain chicken broth.. the flavour of everything seems to be lacking something...won't do this one again!

    This was lovely. I used squash, courgette, onion and chantenay carrots. Even though I'd sliced the carrots lengthways, they were still a little too firm, so it's probably a good idea to keep any pieces of carrot fairly small. The courgettes were really soft, so they probably would have been ok to add at the same time as the apple and stock! Although various combinations of veg would work with this, it is worth considering cooking times and not necessarily putting everything in the pan at the start. I didn't have a bramley apple but the braeburn I used was fine. The herbs and lemon gave the pork a really nice flavour. As other reviewers has mentioned the juices being a little bland, I decanted them into a jug and stirred in a teaspoon of pork gravy granules. This made it seem a bit more like a 'gravy' and tasted great. I'd definitely make this again.

    I bought some really nice pork from the butcher (essential for this recipe I think), added some Fines Herbes and freshly ground black pepper to the coating and baby potatoes and carrots to the vegetable mix - so easy and delicious. This is on our menu at least twice a month now and the plus is, it's healthy!

    This was a very good recipe. I also used pork gravy granules with the sauce. It made the dish less dry

    The pork probably needs 10 minutes less in the oven, and the veg needs a little longer. If I make it again, I'd roast the veg separately from the pork so that the veg is not in the stock and can go crispier. So the apple, pork and stock would be in a different tray. Definitely good potential though. And the lemon and herb crust is beautiful.

    We really enjoyed this dish! I would recommend a little less time in the oven for the pork but apart from that it was delicious! I used red onion, carrots, parsnips and new potatoes and this was yummy! Will certianly be making this again!

    Brilliant recipe. Made a really nice change from our normal sunday roast. Used carrots instead of the squash which worked well and best of all not much washing up!
