Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 230°C. Place pork on a clean work surface. Pat the rind dry with paper towel. Brush with half the oil. Sprinkle evenly with salt, fennel and cumin seeds. Place onion in the base of a roasting pan. Place the pork, rind-side up, over the onion. Roast for 30 mins or until the rind begins to crackle.

  2. Step 2

    Reduce oven to 160°C. Pour stock around the pork in the pan. Cover the pan with foil. Roast for a further 2 hours or until pork is very tender. Set aside, covered, for 15 mins to rest.

  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, combine the Brussels sprout, sugar, vinegar and remaining oil in a roasting pan. Season. Roast, turning occasionally, for 30 mins or until Brussels sprout is golden and tender.

  4. Step 4

    To make the rosemary salsa verde, process the parsley, mint, oregano, rosemary and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. With the motor running, add the oil and lemon juice in a thin, steady stream and process until well combined. Season. Stir in the lemon zest.

  5. Step 5

    Arrange the Brussels sprout on a serving platter with the parsley leaves. Drizzle with salsa verde. Top with the pork. Sprinkle with rosemary sprigs.
