This succulent pork is so tender it will fall apart. It is full of flavour and is complemented by a corn puree and roasted pumpkin slices.

This is a great Sunday, Easter or Christmas roast to share with family.

Ingredients
2 kg pickled pork leg
Water, to cover pork
4 tbsp brown sugar, packed
4 tbsp rice wine vinegar
1 tbsp pepper corns
2 bay leaves
1 tbsp pepper corns
1/2 pumpkin, cut into thick slices
400 g baby spinach

After 6 1/4 hours of the pork cooking, preheat the oven to 220 degrees. Bake the pumpkin for 30 - 45 minutes until soft and caramelised. Set aside.

Preheat a frypan on high. Once hot, gently transfer the pork from the slow cooker to the pan. Turn to cook and seal the outside of the pork. Transfer to a plate to rest for at least 10 minutes.

Place the corn kernels, 1 cup of the fluid from the slow cooker in the frypan and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes on medium.

Add 1 tbsp butter and blend until smooth.
