[Yorky]

Ingredients

• 500 g pork loin or fillet
  
• salt and pepper

Method

1. Cut the pork into two portions, each about 120 mm x 50 mm x 50 mm. Season with salt and pepper. Heat the oil and fry the pork until brown on all sides. Keep aside.
2. Lay out the bacon rashers side by side to the length of the pork joints (slight overlap). Roll the pork in the bacon.
3. Preheat the oven to 200 degC. Place the wrapped pork on a griddle in a baking pan and brush coat generously with the honey.
4. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes basting with the honey around every 5 minutes
5. Turn the pork over and roast for a further 10 minutes basting similarly.
6. Remove from the oven and allow to stand.

Lovely, @Yorky and so neatly executed. Did you cook this in the halogen oven?

The one in the images above was roasted in the gas oven before we bought the halogen. The ones that I've cooked since have been roasted in the halogen oven.

How do you cut it so neatly? Whenever I cook bacon wrapped things the bacon sort of tears or half falls off.
