A marinade of cider, natural maple syrup, and fresh herbs creates a truly fantastic flavor. Marinate the pork for 8 hours, and you'll be amazed by the results: the tender meat easily absorbs all the flavors and aromas, leaving a beautifully crisp, juicy crust after roasting.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Combine the cider, maple syrup, and 3 tablespoons of salt in a measuring cup. Using a mortar and pestle, crush the fennel, peppercorns, coriander, and cinnamon and add to the cider mixture. Place the tenderloins in a 4-quart zip-top bag and pour the marinade over them. Add the ginger and rosemary, press out any air from the bag, seal, and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
  2. Preheat oven to 230°C.

  3. Remove the tenderloin from the marinade and pat dry thoroughly with paper towels. Drain the marinade. Place the tenderloin on a baking sheet and rub with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper.
  4. Roast for 20-25 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the tenderloin registers 125°F (51°C). Remove the pan from the oven and cover the pork tightly with foil. Let rest for 10 minutes. Slice the tenderloins diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick slices, season with salt, and serve with chutney.
