Marinade

90g runny honey

2/3 cup (160ml) soy sauce
1/4 cup (60ml) light olive oil
1 tbs smoked paprika
Pinch of ground cayenne pepper
Finely grated zest of 1 lime

Method

1.

For the marinade, place all ingredients in a large bowl, season and whisk to combine. Add the pork neck and toss to coat. Marinate in fridge for 2-3 hours.
2.

Preheat oven to 180°C.
3.

Place olive oil in a non-stick frypan over medium heat. Season pork with salt and add to the pan, browning the 2 pieces on all sides. Transfer to a baking tray and roast for 30-40 minutes. Remove from the oven and rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
4.

Meanwhile, combine sour cream, lime juice, paprika and 1 tbs cold water in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Slice pork and arrange on serving plates with the radish, apple, walnuts and mint leaves. Drizzle with sour cream dressing to serve.
