Equipment

  • Large baking pan
  • Aluminum foil

Ingredients
  

  • 1.2 kg pork leg (45 ounces)
  • 1.2 kg potatoes cut into wedges (8 medium, 53 ounces)
  • 3 oranges juiced
  • 2 lemons juiced
  • 2 tbsps mustard
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsps olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic
  • fresh rosemary to taste
  • fresh thyme to taste
  • salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • To prepare this delicious roast pork, rub the pork well with salt and place on large baking. Peel and cut the potatoes into wedges and place in the pan.
  • Into a large bowl, add the orange juice, the lemon juice, the mustard, honey and olive oil and blend with a wooden spoon, until the ingredients are combined (for your convenience heat up the honey into a microwave, until liquid and easier to work with). Pour the mixture over the pork and the potatoes. Add one whole clove of garlic and sprinkle the pork with some fresh rosemary. Season the potatoes and sprinkle with fresh thyme.
  • Bake uncovered for approx. 15-20 minutes in preheated oven at 220C, until nicely coloured. Remove the pork from the oven, cover with aluminium foil and lower the heat to 180C. Bake for 1 more hour (add half a glass of hot water, if the pan appears to be getting dry). Enjoy!
