How to make it
- If potatoes are listed, cut into 1 cm cubes, boil for 10 minutes until just tender and drain. Slice the pork into 2 cm medallions; chop remaining vegetables and core any apple.
- Heat half the oil in a nonstick skillet. Sear pork for 3–4 minutes per side, until the center reaches 63°C / 145°F. Move to a clean plate and rest for at least 3 minutes.
- Add remaining oil and the onion and firm vegetables. Cook for 8–10 minutes, adding a splash of water to soften cabbage if used. Add cooked barley or potatoes and any mustard, garlic or spinach; heat through.
- Slice rested pork and serve with the vegetables and grain or potatoes.
- Divide the finished recipe into the stated number of equal servings. All listed ingredients are included in the nutrition estimate.
