Method
- Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Put the cubed potatoes in a large roasting tray, drizzle with the 2 tbsp oil, then season with salt and pepper and toss. Roast for 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over a high heat and add a glug of olive oil. Season the pork tenderloin, then add to the pan and sear for 5-6 minutes until evenly golden all over.
- After 25 minutes, toss the potatoes and nestle the pork in among them. Crumble the feta around the pork, then add the herbs and lemon zest. Roast for a further 15 minutes or until the pork has cooked through. If you have a digital thermometer the meat should read 65-70°C.
- Wilt the spinach with a splash of water in a large lidded pan over a medium heat, then drain. Toss the spinach with a good squeeze of lemon juice, a little olive oil and some salt and pepper, then serve with the pork and potatoes, sprinkled with chilli flakes if using.
