Ingredients
  

  • 2 cloves garlic grated or pressed
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary chopped
  • 1 tsp wholegrain mustard
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 500-750kg/1-1.5 lbs pork tenderloin
  • 5-6 strips bacon/streaky bacon in the UK
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. In a small bowl combine the grated garlic, finely chopped rosemary, mustard, salt and olive oil.
  • With a sharp knife remove as much sinew from the tenderloin as possible.  Rub the tenderloin with the paste, then wrap it with bacon strips overlapping them slightly, so they stay secure. Brush with the mixture of maple syrup and balsamic vinegar.
  • Place in the oven for 20-25 minutes until the internal temperature reads 65C/150F for the juiciest pork. If the bacon is not crisp enough, finish it under the broiler/grill (UK) for 3-5 minutes or as long as needed.  Let rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
