Ingredients

  • 150g Pork Tenderloin
  • 130g bulgur wheat
  • 80g spinach
  • 80g aubergine
  • 20g harissa paste
  • 10g lemon juice
  • 50g greek yoghurt
  • fresh mint

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the spinach and aubergine, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Simmer the bulgur wheat for 10-12 minutes until tender, then drain well.

  3. 3

    Sear the pork tenderloin on all sides, then roast at 200°C for 15-18 minutes until it reaches 63°C inside. Rest before slicing into medallions.

  4. 4

    Loosen the harissa with lemon juice and brush it over the protein before cooking. Swirl a little extra harissa through the yoghurt to serve.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the spinach and aubergine for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: bulgur wheat first, then the veg and pork tenderloin, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the fresh mint.
