Ingredients
  • CALORIES 892
  • 1 × 450g pork tenderloin
  • 1 red apple
  • 1 pear
  • 2 tbsp clear honey
  • 1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
  • 1 tsp garlic purée
  • 2 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • FOR THE VEGETABLES
  • 2 medium white potatoes
  • 2 medium carrots
  • 1 medium parsnip
  • 140g Brussels sprouts
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tsp dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper
Method

Scrub and peel the potatoes, carrots and parsnip, then dice them into two centimetre cubes. Halve the spouts if large, or leave them whole if smaller. Put the vegetables in a bowl and add the olive oil and thyme. Add a generous seasoning of salt and pepper, and mix well with your hands.

Spread the root vegetables across one of the mini baking trays (leaving the sprouts in the bowl) and place on the top shelf of the air fryer oven. Set the temperature to 180C and cook for 15 minutes. Add your sprouts and mix into the other vegetables, then cook for a further 10 minutes.

While the veg are cooking, place the pork tenderloin on the other baking tray, laying it diagonally so that it fits, and season generously with salt and pepper. Slice the apple and pear into wedges, discarding the cores. Spread the fruit out around the pork.

Put the honey, mustard, garlic purée and vinegar in a small bowl and mix with a tablespoon. Pour half the mixture over the pork and fruit, creating a glaze over the tops.

When the air fryer beeps, move the vegetable tray to a lower shelf and add the tray with the pork and fruit to the top shelf. Set the temperature to 180C and cook for 30 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 70C or above. Brush the pork with the remaining marinade, then serve the pork with the fruity wedges and the vegetables.

TIPS
Dual or basket tenderloin: If you are using the basket, you can add the pork tenderloin to the centre, then spread the fruit and veggies around the meat. Or if using a dual, you can place the pork tenderloin and fruit in one drawer and the vegetables in the other. Cook at 180C for 28 minutes (matching the drawers if using a dual), adding the sprouts after the first eight minutes.

Which trays? We use mini oven trays but you can use any tray that fits your air fryer oven.
