Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Arrange the squash and parsnips in a large ovenproof dish and drizzle with 1 tbsp of the oil. Bake for 10 minutes, then add the shallots and continue baking for a further 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the pork marinade. In a small bowl, combine the honey, mustard and orange juice and zest. Set aside until needed. Heat the remaining oil in a large nonstick frying pan.
- Add the pork steaks and cook over a medium-high heat for 2 minutes on each side, or until just turning golden.
- Add the pork to the roasting tin with the veg and brush with the marinade. Drizzle any remaining marinade over the veg. Return to the oven for a further 5 minutes, or until the pork is cooked through and the veg is tender.
