  This was so easy and good, I am sure it will become a favourite of ours. My husband enjoyed it so much he asked me to send him the recipe so he can cook it to impress me and our friends, I can´t wait.

  This was very tasty and the pork was very tender. I reduced the quantities by half ( that was all the meat I had) but will definitely make the full quantity next time and freeze the leftovers. I served it with just plain rice and it worked well.

  This was lovely! I added chillies, garlic and ginger to the pork as I thought it would taste fresher than just the seasoning on it's own. Yummy.

  I cooked this for my parents; I served it with rice and peas (see mango chicken recipe) and pak choi instead of kale with it. Take care not to overcook the meat - it can get dry easily (perhaps taste it after 1h 45m?), but the sauce makes up for it either way. I've tried it with paste and with a rub, and the paste was much, much hotter.

  This was really tasty although mine looked alot more tomatoey than the picture and also had a lot more liquid so I took the lid off for the last half hour of cooking. It must have had two hours in the oven.

  I make this regularly and absolutely love it. Great for a cheap cut even tastier with some extra garlic and chilli.

  Delicious and easy using cheap cuts of meat, perfect for a cold Sunday. Will definitely do again and add different ingredients.

  I completed the recipe exactly but not to our liking - something missing but not sure what it was. The pork was beautifully tender though. Not for us sorry.

  Disappointing. The pork was spicy from the jerk seasoning but no depth of flavour. Now I need to find another recipe to use up the half jar of seasoning!
