Pork Six Ways
Roast pork loin wrapped in serrano ham, a black pudding and 'nduja croquette, crackling, fondant potato cooked in pork fat, honey and orange roasted carrots, shallot and thyme puree, served with a pork chop dripping cider sauce.
Tony is a 46-year-old dairy factory worker from Yorkshire who shares his passion for cooking with his 10-year-old son Flynn.
Tony: "It's my signature meat that I always go to, pork loin. I'm trying to make a roast dinner but elevate it to that next level. The roast potatoes are going to be roasting in pork fat. The sauce is going to be a pork dripping sauce. The pork itself is wrapped in serrano ham and then it's going to have a black pudding and 'nduja croquette."
Anna: "The pork loin is supposed to be the star of the show. I want it with a lovely hint of pink because overcooked pork loin is dry. If you're giving me crackling, I want it bursting with bubbles of crackling so it's crunchy and delicious."
Grace: "Tony, I feel like I'm celebrating a new national holiday: pork mass. Your pork is beautifully cooked and moist."
Anna: "Your croquette - for me, 'nduja is such a dominant flavour, but you've had restraint. It's not too strong. Your potato is crunchy and delicious. Your crackling is cracking. Your sauce, the flavour is there in bucket loads. Some great skills, some great cooking." Tony won an apron.
