How to make it
- Heat a fry-pan on high heat. Add butter and allow to bubble then season the pork fillets well all over.
- Place fillets in the pan and fry for 2 mins to give it some colour all over. Remove & rest – leave butter in pan.
- In a processor, chop the fennel, apple, herbs & shallots, then fry the mixture in the butter for 2 mins. Cook until soft then add the spinach & cook down. Season with salt & pepper.
- Place this mixture in a sieve over a bowl & set aside until cool enough to squeeze out all the excess moisture.
- Overlap two pieces of cling film over a large chopping board or bench.
- Lay the slices of bacon on the cling film in two rows, slightly overlapping.
- Sit the pork fillets on top. Pack the apple and fennel mix in the gaps, then top with the rest of the apple and fennel mix.
- Use the cling film to wrap the bacon around the fillet mixture, then roll it into a sausage shape, twisting the ends of cling film to tighten it as you go.
- Chill while you roll out the pastry.
- Unroll the fillet from the cling film and sit it in the centre of the sheet of pastry then roll it up and seal it.
- Brush the pastry with a beaten egg.
- Heat oven to 200˚C & cook for 35-40 mins until golden – the pork will be just pink in the middle. Allow to stand for 10 mins before serving in thick slices
- Meanwhile, to make the sauce, bring the cream and mustards to the boil, reduce heat and simmer the sauce until reduced and thickened.
- To make the Colcannon, put the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with water – Add 2 tablespoons of salt, and bring to a boil.
- Boil until the potatoes are fork tender – 15 to 20 minutes. Drain.
- Mash the potatoes with buttermilk – season with salt & pepper.
- Place over low heat & stir in the chopped kale & shallots.
- Sauté the broccolini & greens in a fry pan with some olive oil until slightly charred & season with salt.
- Serve up the wellington with a side of Colcannon, Charred greens and honey mustard cream sauce!
