    Bought some pork loin steaks along with other meats yesterday, usually we just dry fry them and serve with spuds and veggies, but I was thinking I might try something different.

    Hubby suggested a stir-fry, but i'm not too keen on typical stir-fry veggies, so can anyone come up with any more ideas??

    spread some English mustard on one side and the cover with mixed herbs and slap under the grill
  • one of our favourite dishes is to put them in oven proof dish and add honey, chilli sauce, an onion and some seasoning (you can add anything really - garlic, squeeze of lemon juice) Leave to marinade for a couple of hours and then oven bake first with foil on then take the foil off so the honey caramelises on the pork.

    Could be served with either egg noodles or jackets or even pasta!

    Make a circle in the centre and remove the meat about the size of a 50p. Fill the hole with Stilton cheese.
    Get some cherry tomatoes on the vine and chop into little quarters, fry these quickly with a bit of garlic, when they get soft and a little browned on the skin add a little swig of Balsamic vinegar. Fry the vinegar off and then serve at the side of the pork.

    My favourite is to top with apple sauce and melt cheese over the top! Delicious!:)

    Here's the recipe

    Less is more
  • Top with pesto (from a jar if you like) and either oven cook or do under moderate grill until pork cooked.

    Or pan fry and serve with tarragon mustard sauce - deglaze pan with slug of brandy, add chopped tarragon, little bit of chopped garlic and dollop of dijon mustard. Simmer for a couple of minutes then stir in some cream. Warm through and serve.

    My favourite way: dry fry to brown. Put them in an ovenproof dish. Cover with plenty of sliced mushrooms, onions and peppers (or could use other things like courgettes, leeks etc depends what you've got). Make a sauce from 2tbsp soy and 1tbsp cornflour and half pt of orange juice (from carton) can add some sherry too if you want. Cook for abt an hour at abt 190 degrees, strirring occasionally to get veg to soak up sauce. We usually have this with jacket potato and something green.

    And lots of pepper!

    quick and easy: cut into strips across the grain. fry off some onions and garlic, and set aside. reheat pan til really hot and add strips in batches, fry until brown, put back onions and garlic and cook until done. (I add plenty mushrooms at this point). When cooked add a splash of brandy/wine/wine or cider vinegar/lemon juice and cook until evaporated. Take off the heat, stir through cream/creme fraiche/sour cream/ricotta - whatever creamy type stuff you have in the fridge. Warm gently and serve. goes down well with rice and broccoli in my house.
