  You must try this! Melt in the mouth pork that is just lovely. Easy to prepare; easy to cook and very easy to eat! My son is not a pork lover but will "suffer" it when needed - he absolutely loved this and even asked for us to have it again! It has taken me ages and a lot of different recipes to find something as good as this - go on on, give it a try - you won't regret it.

  Best pork I've ever cooked - this is just lovely. Timings didn't quite work for me (hadn't prepped the veg, needed to go out, but pork had to go in) , so I cooked the peppers on the stove top for 40 minutes, and it worked just fine. Have just eaten some leftovers and the pork is still tender and lovely straight out of the fridge.

  Brilliant recipe. So quick to prepare then it cooks on its own. Meat lovely and tender. Everyone liked the apples and peppers too. Will be making it again.

  Delicious moist pork, with very little effort. Miraculously everyone in the family liked it (definitely a family favourite from now on). Used red onions for more taste.

  OMG, cannot believe how delicious this was! I'm not a lover of sweet and savoury so my cooking can be a bit boring sometimes. However, I thought I would start making more of an effort as I actually enjoy cooking so I dug out a few recipes and invited family around for Sunday lunch. They absolutely loved the pork and the apple/onions/peppers side dish was lapped up. I even had seconds myself. I also made sticky toffee pudding - OMG heaven!!! I can't believe how easy it is and what simple ingredients it has. Yummie!!!

  This is an absolute winner! My fussy husband couldn't praise it enough and this really says something. I've made loads of pork dishes before, however, this one must be the best. Amazing result for such little effort. I served it with 2 small jacket potatoes (didn't get time to do the egg whites like suggested). This will be one of our regular weekend treats from now on.

  this was delicious - roasted it really slowly and then exposed the joint to try and get the crackling sorted.Managed to get it fairly crackly but would have liked it a bit cracklier.Served this with Pommes Anna and it was totally scrummy - will definitely make it again

  What more can I say except YUMMMMMMYYYY!! I cooked this dish for a two-people christmas celebration with my bf, so I reduced the amount of apples and peppers and a slightly smaller portion of pork....still turned absolutely wonderful!! Amazing recipe!

  The recipe looks fab. I would like to make it for an outdoors event for about 20 people. Can I make this in advance and serve cold ??? Has anybody tried it cold ??? Thanks for any help in this.

  I will be hosting a dinner party next week with the request that whatever I will be cooking it must be pork. I came across this recipe and it sounds good. Will keep you updated how it went.
