Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 3, 160C, fan 140C.
- Mix the spices with the sugar and salt, then rub over the pork.
- Heat the oil in an ovenproof saucepan over a medium heat, then sear the pork to brown the edges. Pour in the cider and bring to a simmer. Cover, place in the oven for 1-1.5 hrs.
- While the pork is cooking, prepare the pickled apple. Toss together the apple, red onion, vinegar and sugar. Set aside to marinate for at least 30 mins.
- Check the pork after 1 hour, and every 20 mins after that. It is ready when it breaks away with a fork. Remove from the oven and allow the pork to cool slightly, then use two forks to pull the pork to pieces. Stir through a little cooking liquid and the BBQ sauce, sesame oil and lime juice.
- Stir the sesame seeds through the pickled apple.
- To fill, divide the pork filling between the rolls, top with the pickled apple and a couple of prawn crackers, then serve with extra prawn crackers, if desired.
Tip: If you are short on time, make use of Tesco's prepared meal range by using Tesco Sweet BBQ Pulled Pork, instead of making the pulled pork.
