- 1 baby bok choy, halved lengthways
- 50g green beans, ends trimmed
CARAMELISED CHILLI SAUCE
- 1/2 shallot, finely diced
- 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
- 1/2 red chilli, thinly sliced (seeds removed if your prefer less heat)

Steps
-
oven to 220°C. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Bring a half-full kettle to the boil. Preheat BBQ grill to medium (if using).
-
Toss pumpkin with a drizzle of oil on prepared tray and season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 20 minutes until cooked through, turn once during cooking.
-
Pat pork dry with paper towels and rub in Chinese five spice mix and a drizzle of oil. Heat a drizzle of oil in a small fry-pan on medium heat (or use BBQ). Cook pork for about 2 minutes each side (depending on thickness), until just cooked through. Wrap in foil to rest for 5 minutes while you cook the vegetables and sauce. Wipe fry-pan out and reduce heat to low to medium.
-
While waiting for pan to cool, place bok choy and beans in a small, heat-proof bowl with a pinch of salt and cover with boiling water. Leave for 2–3 minutes then drain and set aside.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in same pan and cook shallot, garlic, chilli and ginger for 2–3 minutes, until softened. Add wine/stock and allow to bubble rapidly for 30 seconds until nearly all evaporated. Stir through all remaining caramelised chilli sauce ingredients and simmer for 1–2 minutes, until slightly sticky.
-
Place pumpkin on a plate with vegetables and pork. Spoon over caramelised chilli sauce and garnish with coriander.
