Hi!

I dont know if eny of you have the owen to do-but here ie how to make a danish-flaeskesteg!

Flæskesteg - Roast pork

5-6 lb (2½ kg) leg of pork

About 1/3 pint (2½ dl) stock

Salt

Ground black pepper

Colman's mustard

4-6 tablesp. cream

1 tablesp. tomato purée

Soy sauce

Corn starch for thickening

Score the pork and rub with salt, mustard powder and a little pepper. Place on a grid and roast at 480o F (250o C) for about ½ hour or until the crackling turns white. Turn the oven down to 360o F (180o C) and pour in the boiling stock.

Roast the joint for a further 2 1/4 hours depending on the size. Do not baste, or the crackling will become soft, but turn down the heat if it becomes too dark.

Pour the gravy into a small saucepan, leaving the joint to keep hot in the oven with the door ajar. Skim the fat off the gravy and add the cream to taste. Boil up with the salt, pepper, tomato purée and soy sauce, thickening with cornstarch if desired.

Serve with red cabbage and caramelized potatoes.
