Pork meat does not have tons of flavour and can actually be rather bland. This sweet and tangy honey mustard glaze will magically transform your roast leg of pork into a tender and juicy taste sensation. Add some delicious crispy crackling and you have a meal fit for royalty…

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This leg of pork is slow roasted at a low temperature in the oven for several hours to give the meat a succulent and soft texture. Don’t rush it…it’s well worth the wait! To make the crackling crispy, remember that it must be cooked separately, in a hotter oven than the meat.

This recipe for Roast Leg of Pork asks for grainy Dijon mustard, but If you want more bite, you can always use spicy horseradish mustard.

When you remove the roast from the oven, let it sit for 15 minutes before slicing. Serve the roast with additional honey and mustard dressing for some dipping!

The roast pork pairs well with rice or roast potatoes, freshly blanched green beans, glazed carrots and pumpkin fritters for a traditional Sunday feast.

If there are any leftovers the next day, use the roast leg of pork to make sandwiches, tacos, pita wraps or even turn it into a quick stir-fry with some veggies.

CHEF’S TIP

  • This glaze also works well with pork chops: Roast them in the oven with the glaze on top so it gets nice and caramelised.
