Method

1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Slice the meat along its entire length and open out like a book.

5. Prepare the stewed apples. Place the apples, ginger and sugar in a saucepan. Add 2 tablespoons water, cover and simmer until the apples are tender.

6. After 1 1/2 hour of roasting the meat, remove the foil from the pan. Drizzle the pork with honey. Add the shallots and parsnips, stir and continue to bake.
