Cooking Skill: Not Too Tricky

Ingredients

4 pork loin medallions, or loin steaks, fat removed and cut into 1.5cm cubes

For the satay

1 tablespoon curry powder

2 teaspoons oil

1 tablespoon reduced salt soy sauce

Juice of ½ lime

1 garlic clove, peeled and crushed or 1 teaspoon garlic purée

For the salad

1 x 300g pack chilled rice noodles

2 carrots, peeled and thinly sliced

½ cucumber, thinly sliced lengthways

4 tablespoons freshly chopped coriander

For the peanut dressing

2 tablespoons reduced sugar crunchy peanut butter

Juice 1 large lime

2 tablespoons reduced salt soy sauce

2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar

Method

Step 1

Soak 4-6 wooden skewers in cold water for 15 minutes and set aside. Place the pork in a bowl with the curry powder, oil, soy, lime juice and garlic, stir well to coat. Cover and set aside.

Step 2

For the salad; place the rice noodles in a large bowl and cover with boiling water. Leave to stand for 2 minutes, then refresh under cold water and leave to drain.

Step 3

Place all the remaining salad ingredients in a large bowl and add the rice noodles. In a small bowl, mix together the dressing ingredients until well combined, pour over the salad (reserving a little) and toss well to coat in the dressing. Preheat the grill or griddle pan over moderate heat until hot.

Step 4

Thread the pork onto the skewers and grill or griddle for 10 minutes turning once or until the meat juices run clear.

Step 5

Serve immediately with the salad, drizzled with a little of the remaining dressing and a squeeze of lime.
