1. Season pork with pepper and salt. Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium to high heat. Spray with oil. Cook pork for 2 to 3 minutes each side or until golden brown. Transfer to a plate. Spray the pan with oil. Cook the apple 2 to 3 minutes each side or until browned. Transfer it to the plate with the pork. Now cook the leek for 1 to 2 minutes or until light golden.
2. In a 5L capacity slow cooker, place 2 pork cutlets. Top with ½ the apple, ½ the leek, and ½ the potato. Put the remaining pork cutlets on the top. Top it up with remaining apple, potato, and leek.
3. Place the flour in a jug. Add some stock to make a smooth paste. Now add remaining stock, wine, mustard, and garlic. Pour over pork. Cover and cook on high for three hours.
4. Add carrot and parsnip. Cover and cook on low for another one hour or until the vegetables are tender. Divide the pork, apple, and vegetables among serving plates. Serve with steamed beans.
