Serves 2-4
For the marinade:
Prep time: 5 minutes and 30 minutes – 8 hours to marinade
Cooking time: 25 minutes
Total time: 30 minutes
Put the marinade ingredients in a nutribullet or food processor and blitz to a thick puree. Place the pork fillet into a deep cermaic or glass tray and pour over the marinade. Massage in well with your hands and leave to marinade for at least 30 minutes – 8 hours.
Preheat your barbeque to a medium heat. This will also work well in the oven where you can preheat it to 180/350/gas 4.
For the barbeque, cook over a medium heat for 25 minutes basting from time to time. If you are using an oven, place the pork in a roasting tray and cook for 25 minutes.
Once cooked, cover the pork with tin foil and place it on the side to rest for 2 minutes. If you have any spare marinade add it to a medium sized saucepan along with 200ml water and a beef stock cube.Ā Bring to the boil and reduce it down for 15 minutes or until it thickens.
Serve with buttered new potatoes, broccoli and green beans.

To test if the fillet is cooked, squeeze it in the middle on either side with your thumb and index finger. It should feel pretty firm to the touch but with a little bounce. If you feel itās squishy, then it needs a little more cooking. If it is firm as a rock, then get it off straight away. Itās nice to slice it on the diagonal before you serve. Some of the meat might look pinky-grey. Fear not! As long as the texture of the meat has changed from fleshy to cooked and it is hot to the touch, then you are good to go.”
