INSTRUCTIONS
Order your suckling pig from a good butcher or your favourite Italian restaurant, get them to clean it for you. Split pig in half, leaving head on if possible. Place some olive oil in a large roasting tin and when hot place pig in it with the onion and carrots cut in half, garlic cloves whole, rosemary and an apple cut into 4. Place in a hot oven and roast for 40 minutes depending on the size of the pig. In the meantime peel potatoes , cut into squares and boil for 5 minutes. Place in a roasting dish with some garlic, sea salt, butter and some onions and roast for 20 minutes. Keep hot when finished cooking. In a pan of boiling water cook the beans for 5 minutes until al dente ~ drain and saut with olive oil, garlic and rosemary. Wash and slice the apples thinly, sprinkle with brown sugar and place under the grill until golden brown. Take the suckling pig and cut into pieces - to make crispy place each portion under the grill for 3 minutes. Using the pan you cooked the suckling pig in add the brown sauce with some wine and butter and simmer for 5-8 minutes. To make good gravy strain everything into a small pan and bring to the boil. Tip:when serving place the pig in the middle of the plate, add slices of glazed apple on top, put roast potatoes on one side and beans on the other. Serve the gravy separate.

A Message from our Provider:
“Let Him therefore send and do what He will. By His grace, if we are His, we will face it, bow to it, accept it, and give thanks for it. God’s Providence is always executed in the ‘wisest manner’ possible. We are often unable to see and understand the reasons and causes for specific events in our lives, in the lives of others, or in the history of the world. But our lack of understanding does not prevent us from believing God. #Don Fortner”
