Pork has a way of embracing fruity flavors like no other protein. In this recipe, we’re smothering it in chunks of tender, saucy apple, which add a welcome touch of sweetness to the mild flavor of the meat. On the side, we’ve got sugar snap peas and a mash that tucks cauliflower into the potatoes—it’s so good, your kids won’t notice you snuck in some extra veggies!

Instructions

Boil potatoes and cauliflower
1

Wash and dry all produce. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Chop potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Place potatoes and cauliflower in a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until very tender, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to same pot.

Trim and roast snap peas
2

Meanwhile, trim snap peas, then place on a baking sheet and toss with a drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast until just starting soften, about 10 minutes.

Sear and roast pork
3

While snap peas roast, heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Season pork all over with salt, pepper, and thyme. Add to pan and sear until browned, 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer to baking sheet with snap peas and roast together until pork is cooked through and snap peas are tender, 5-7 minutes.

Cook apples
4

Halve and remove cores from apples, then chop into ½-inch cubes. Heat 2 TBSP butter and a drizzle of oil in same pan over medium heat. Add apples and cook until golden, 5-7 minutes, tossing occasionally. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in stock concentrates and 1 cup water. Increase heat to medium-high and cook until apples are tender and sauce is thick, 3-4 minutes.

Make cauliflower mash
5

Add 2 TBSP butter to pot with potatoes and cauliflower and toss to melt. (TIP: If potatoes and cauliflower have cooled, reheat briefly over low heat.) Mash with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth. Season generously with salt and pepper.

Plate and serve
6

Divide cauliflower mash between plates. Top with pork and snap peas. Drizzle with apple pan sauce, making sure to spoon any chunks of apple onto plate.
