This succulent slow-roasted pork shoulder with salsa verde is an impressive centrepiece that balances rich, tender meat with a punchy, herb-driven sauce. The pork is seasoned with a fragrant rub of rosemary, sage and garlic, then roasted slowly until it reaches melt-in-the-mouth perfection. The accompanying salsa verde, bright with lemon and salty anchovies, provides a sharp contrast to the savoury roast, making every bite feel light and balanced.
A brilliant option for a weekend lunch, this diabetes-friendly dish is naturally low in carbohydrates and packed with high-quality protein. By using a heritage pork shoulder and allowing it to rest before carving, you ensure the juices remain in the meat for a superior flavour. Serve it with steamed seasonal greens or roasted root vegetables for a complete, nutritious meal the whole family will enjoy.
