1. Heat the oil in a roasting tin on the hob (use 2 rings), then add the onions, pears, most of the rosemary and seasoning. Fry for 5 mins or until just starting to caramelise.
2. Heat grill to high. Season the pork, then arrange among the veg and fry for 5 mins, turning halfway until golden and cooked through. Scatter with the remaining rosemary and the cheese, grill until the cheese starts to melt, then serve.

  Left out the cheese and used white onions chopped up, also added courgettes to tin to cook along side in oven not grill. nearish the end added a glass of white wine, so, even after thoroughly messing around with the recipe it was good and enjoyed by even my picky housemates!

  I cooked this for my girlfriend and me and we couldn't believe how good it tasted! Was unsure about the use of pears and what type to use but used Comice and they came out well - make sure you cook them until they are soft - they felt like the potato substitute. The caramelising red onion was served on the side. The pork fried with salt, pepper and rosemary, and then with the oven blasted melted stilton on top was mouthwatering! Considering the short amount of preparation and cooking time involved, this meal is amazing!
