Ingredients

500g/1lb 2oz lean pork fillet
2 teaspoons sunflower oil
150ml/5fl oz vegetable stock
150ml/5fl oz dry rosé wine
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon clear honey
2 green dessert apples, cored, sliced and tossed in 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
175g/6oz fresh blackberries
2 teaspoons cornflour
4 teaspoons lemon juice
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Trim away any fat and silvery skin from the pork fillet, and cut into 1cm/1⁄2in thick slices.
Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan, add the pork slices and sauté for 4–5 minutes until browned all over. Using a slotted spoon, remove the pork and drain on kitchen paper. Reserve the pan juices.
Pour the stock and wine into the pan with the juices, and add the thyme and honey. Mix well, bring to a simmer and add the pork and apples. Continue to simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
Add the blackberries, season with salt and pepper, and simmer for a further 5 minutes. Mix the cornflour with the lemon juice and add to the pan – stir until the sauce has thickened. Serve hot with boiled potatoes.
