Thai-inspired Peanut Pork




Thai-inspired Peanut Pork

This simple Thai-inspired Peanut Pork melts in the mouth and is all cooked in one pan, with the oven doing most of the work.

The pork is slow-cooked until it's fall-apart tender, in a delicious sauce packed with Thai inspired flavours and finished off with fresh beansprouts and coriander. It's perfect comfort food as the evenings are getting cooler.
