Whether you’re grilling outside or in, these sweet and sour pork steaks make an inexpensive tasty meal. Marinated in a mixture of rice wine vinegar (or dry sherry), honey, soy sauce, tomato ketchup and pineapple juice the pork steaks not only stay moist they have a lovely sweet tangy flavour too. If cooking on a barbecue serve with vegetable kebabs made from bite-sized pieces of red, yellow and green peppers, courgettes, red onion and mushrooms. If cooking indoors it’s easier to tip all the vegetables into a roasting tin, toss in a little olive oil and roast in a hot oven for 20 mins until tender.

Sprinkle with pink peppercorns and oregano leaves, if using, and serve with vegetable kebabs or roasted vegetables.
