Step 1 - Preheat oven to 220ºC. Place the pork in a roasting tin and season with salt and pepper.

Step 4 - When the pork is cooked remove it from the oven and place on a large plate or board. Cover with tin foil and allow to rest while you make the gravy

Step 5 - Strain off some of the fat from the roasting tin then stir the flour into the remaining juices. Place over a medium heat and continue stirring with a wooden spoon. Gradually add in the stock or water and bring to the boil. Simmer for a couple of minutes then strain through a sieve into a saucepan

Step 6 - Discard the vegetables that were cooked in the roasting tin with the pork. Add the redcurrant jelly to the strained liquid and boil for a couple of minutes until the gravy thickens.

Step 7 - Serve the sliced pork and gravy with the additional roast vegetables and potatoes.
