Pork Loin with Mushrooms, Figs & Chestnuts

Not only is autumn the mushroom season, but it is also the best time for figs and chestnuts. They all have an ‘earthy’ quality but with different textures. Remember to look out for ready-cooked and peeled chestnuts, which are really good and save a lot of time, too! I have given you the option of cooking the pork in different ways and I hope you’ll try both methods to appreciate the differences in flavour, colour and texture.
