A bolar roast is such a versatile cut, it can be slow cooked or roasted for a Sunday treat. This simple marinade gives a hint of Asian flavours while still being approachable for kids and families. You could add some chilli but we think it's great just as is. Serve this Sunday roast with piles of steamed seasonal vegetables and rice or even noodles on the side.

Method
Preheat your oven to 180 degrees.
Trim any gristle off the bolar roast and place into a roasting dish.
Mix the ginger, garlic, soy sauce, orange, honey and rice wine vinegar together into a jug until well combined. Brush or pour over the meat and place into the oven
Roast until browned and cooked to your liking - 50 minutes for medium rare or 1 hour for medium.
Make sure to baste a little with pan juices through out the cooking.
Remove from pan, cover loosely with foil and set aside to rest for at least 20 minutes.
Meanwhile blanch your broccoli, sugar snaps and beans in hot water and then toss them in a hot wok with the sesame oil.
Once lightly blistered and hot, add in your bean sprouts, toss together and remove from the heat.
Carefully slice your roast and serve with a pile of vegetables hot from the wok and steamed rice
