Method

Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Put the pork in a deep roasting tin and pat dry with kitchen paper. Rub all over with 1 tbsp oil and the fennel seeds, and season with black pepper. Roast in the centre of the oven for 45 mins.
Toss together the leek, apple, sage and remaining oil. Add to the roasting tray around the pork, then roast for 15-20 mins until the pork is golden, cooked through and the juices run clear. Transfer the pork to a plate and set aside to rest.
Whisk the stock and mustards together until smooth, then pour over the leek mixture and stir in the cannellini beans and kale. Roast for 10 mins until the kale has wilted and the sauce is piping hot. Stir in the crème fraîche and pork resting juices and season with black pepper.
Thinly slice the pork and serve on top of the beans. Leftover pork will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.
