Serves 6
2kg piece pork shoulder

2 Tbsp oil

Salt

1 cup white wine

½ cup water

1 cup marmalade
  1. Preheat an oven to 160C.
  2. Line an oven dish with baking paper. Place the pork into the dish, rub with oil and season with salt. Pour the wine and water around the pork. Cover with tinfoil and place into the oven for 2 hours. Remove the foil and continue to cook for 1 hour.
