Method:

Take a lean 1.25g (2½lb) lean pork loint, leg or shoulder joint. Score the rind and rub all over with 15ml (1tbsp) Chinese 5 spice, oil and salt.

Remove from the heat and add 150g (5oz) fresh breadcrumbs, 50g (2oz) black pudding, chopped into small pieces, 2.5ml (½tsp) Chinese 5 spice and 45-60ml (3-4tbsp) apple sauce. Mix together well and shape into 10-12 stuffing balls. Place onto a baking try and add to the oven during the last 30 minutes of cooking time.

Serving Suggestion:

Serve the pork with the stuffing balls, pak choi or green vegetables, roasted apples, potatoes and gravy. Alternatively serve sliced cold with a Chinese noodle salad, or a potato salad.
