INSTRUCTIONS
1 Heat the olive oil in a pan, add the onion and cook gently until softened. For the Soup: Cook the apple and half a potato in 600ml/1 pint boiling water, adding the stock cube and a quarter of the softened onions to the water. 2 Simmer until the potato and apples are tender, blitz in a processor until smooth and season. For the Pepper Cream: Quarter the pepper, deseed and chop. Heat the butter in a small frying pan and cook the peppers gently for 6-7 minutes, or until tender, season. 3 Place the softened peppers in a mini food processor with 2 tbsp creme fraiche and process until smooth. Pour the soup into a bowl, drizzle some pepper cream in the middle and garnish with coriander leaves. 4 For the Mash: Cook the remaining potatoes in a pan of boiling water with the chopped sage until tender. When cooked, drain the potatoes and return to the pan over a low heat to dry out slightly. 5 Add 1 tbsp creme fraiche and leftover onions, season and mash until smooth. 6 For the Deep Fried Pork: Thinly slice the pork on the diagonal. Sandwich together two slices of pork with a little wholegrain mustard in the middle. Fill a deep pan one third full with vegetable oil and heat. 7 Put the flour in a bowl, add the bicarbonate of soda, mix and gradually add just enough cold water to make a thick batter. 8 Add the balsamic and white wine vinegars, quickly mix in, add the pork 'sandwiches' and coat in the batter. Deep fry until the pork is cooked through and golden brown. 9 Drain the pork on kitchen paper. Pile the mash onto a plate and arrange the deep fried pork on top. Garnish with sprigs of parsley.
