Directions
- Preheat oven to 220C / 430F (standard oven) or 200C / 390F (fan forced / convection).
- Toss potatoes in oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Scatter on baking tray.
- Place in oven for 15 minutes (giving them a head start).
Pork
- 4. Meanwhile, mix the Rub ingredients together in a small bowl.
- 5. Slather the pork on both sides with the Rub, reserving some Rub for basting. (See notes for marinating)
- 6. Take the tray out of the oven. Toss potatoes then push them to the edge.
- 7. Place pork on tray. Bake for 15 minutes.
- 8. Remove tray from oven, flick to broiler/grill on high (shelf about 20cm/8″ from heat source).
- 9. Flip pork, spoon over reserved rub and dab on sides. (Note 4). Broil 7 – 10 minutes until pretty well caramelised.
- 10. Remove from oven. Use a brush to get the golden juices off the tray and dab it onto the pork – this is key for flavour and colour! Pop it back under the broiler for a couple of minutes to finish off.
- 11. Serve, scraping the juices on the tray onto the pork, then garnish with parsley if desired.
