Put a splash of olive oil into the frying pan followed by the pork, bay and rosemary. Season well. Fry and stir frequently for 25 minutes or until the pork is golden and crispy. At this point remove the bay and rosemary and pour away the fat.Quarter the apples, then carefully remove and discard the cores. Cut the apples into rough chunks about the same size as the pork and add to the frying pan with a splash of olive oil, the walnuts, honey, thyme leaves and the juice squeezed from the orange. Stir well and place the pan in the oven for 20 minutes or until the mixture turns dark.Meanwhile cook the rice in the boiling salted water according to the packet instructions. Drain and allow to steam dry. Add the oven ingredients to the rice and add a couple of tablespoons of cider vinger to the oven pan and deglaze the pan. Add this to the rice and meat mixture. Add the parsley and spring onions and toss together well. Have a taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.Serving Size: Makes 5 lunch sized portionsNumber of Servings: 5Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user LAURAEGRAY86.
