Heat the oven to 180C (160C fan, gas 4). Squeeze the orange over the pork spare ribs, rub with the garlic, sweet paprika and half the olive oil, and season well.

Roast the ribs in a large roasting tin for 50 minutes, turning once.

Meanwhile, boil the cassava in salted water for 20 minutes until just tender, then drain and toss with the remaining olive oil.

Add the cassava to the roasting tin around the ribs and roast for a further 20-25 minutes, until the pork is cooked through with no pink remaining and the cassava is golden.

Scatter with fresh coriander and serve straight from the tin.
