Roober-roast pork!

That's a name I just made up myself: "Roober-roast", meaning roasted with roots and tubers!  This was the first Sunday roast cooked in the new oven (using the "main" oven, this time) and using the tray that came with the cooker, as most of my roasting tins will not fit into the smaller oven cavities.

Result? ... well, it ended up very nice indeed (as you can see) but it needed some adjustments along the way, as I hadn't bothered to read the instructions and got the functions all wrong on the "multi-function" dial!  We ended up with puddles of condensation on our beautiful new floor, which wasn't good, and meat and potatoes all at different stages of cooked-ness!


Pork was roasted with potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots and onions; red cabbage was braised with sweetener (can't use sugar, because of diabetic hubby), wine vinegar and red wine; frozen peas given a quick blast in the microwave ... and gravy.
