-
Peel potatoes and trim the two
longer sides so potatoes lie flat on both sides. Heat
butter and oil in a frying pan large enough to hold all of
the potatoes. When the fat is hot, fry on both sides until
dark golden, around 10-15 mins.
-
Pour in enough cider and stock
to go halfway up the side of the potatoes. Take care when
pouring the liquid in the hot fat. Have cover ready. Simmer for 20
mins, then turn and cook the other side for 20 mins. Top
up with cider and stock when the liquid evaporates. Transfer
to oven for 10 mins at 180C/160C/ gas 4 once the pork is
resting, until cooked through and most of the liquid has
evaporated.
