PORK RISSOLES

Steps:

• REPARE RISSOLES Whisk egg in a large bowl. Stir in breadcrumbs. Grate apple (you can leave the skin on) and squeeze out excess moisture. Finely slice spring onions. Add apple, spring onions, mince, stock powder and garlic powder to egg mixture. Season generously with salt and pepper and mix well. Shape mixture into 8 patties and refrigerate until ready to cook.
• COOK MASH Peel kumara and potatoes. Cut into 2cm (0.8in) pieces and place in a large saucepan. Cover with water and bring to the boil. Cook for 20 minutes, until tender.
• COOK RISSOLES Melt butter in a large frying pan (or split between two pans if rissoles won't fit into one) on medium heat. Fry rissoles for 5 minutes each side, until cooked through. Remove onto a warm plate and cover with foil.
• PREPARE APPLES, BROCCOLI AND MASH While rissoles are cooking, slice apples (skin can stay on) and cut broccoli into florets.
• Once you have removed rissoles from pan, leave pan on the heat and melt butter for apples. Add apple slices, sugar and stock mixture. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, until apples are soft and lightly caramelised.
• Microwave broccoli for 3-4 minutes, until tender. Drain potatoes and add butter and milk. Season with salt and pepper and mash until smooth.
• SERVE Divide mash between warmed serving plates. Top with rissoles and apples. Spoon pan juices over the top and serve broccoli on the side.
