1 (700g) pack baby new potatoes
4tbsp oil
225g/8oz open-cap mushrooms
225g/8oz cherry tomatoes
4 (150g/5oz) pork loin chops
4tbsp pesto sauce
1. Preheat the oven to 190C/Fan170C/Gas Mark 5. Place the potatoes in a large oven proof idsh; add half the oil. Toss to coat. Roast for 20 minutes.
2. Add the mushrooms and tomatoes; gently toss together. Lay the chops on top; season well with salt and black pepper.
3. Mix together the remaining oil and the pesto sauce. Drizzle over the chops and vegetables.
4. Roast for 20-25 m inutes until the chops are cooked through adn the potatoes are tender.
If baby new potatoes are not available, use larger potatoes peeled and cut into chunks.
