This aromatic fennel-rubbed pork roast is a sophisticated yet simple choice for a healthy Sunday lunch or a midweek feast. By using a lean top sirloin cut and a vibrant crust of crushed fennel and anise seeds, the meat is infused with a fragrant, slightly sweet liquorice flavour that perfectly complements the savoury pork without the need for sugary glazes or heavy sauces.
As a diabetes-friendly main course, this recipe prioritises high-quality protein and bold spices over carbohydrates. The addition of crushed red pepper flakes provides a subtle warmth that elevates the dish further. Serve your roasted pork sliced thinly alongside a generous helping of steamed seasonal greens or a crisp garden salad for a balanced, nutritious meal that feels truly indulgent.

Ingredients for Fennel-Rubbed Pork Roast
1.4kg pork top sirloin roast, tied
1 tablespoon olive oil
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons fennel seeds, crushed
1 tablespoon anise seeds, crushed
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
How to make Fennel-Rubbed Pork Roast
Preheat oven to 204°C. Rub pork with oil; season generously with salt and pepper and rub with fennel seeds, anise seeds, and red pepper flakes, pressing to adhere.
Place pork roast, fat side up, on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until deeply browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the centre registers 57°C, 60–70 minutes.
Transfer to a cutting board; let pork rest at least 10 minutes before slicing.
DO AHEAD: Pork can be seasoned 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
