Serves 4

Ingredients:

400g pork fillets

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons cracked black pepper

1/3 cup balsamic vinegar

250g strawberries, hulled and halved

2 teaspoons lemon juice

80g salad leaves

50g goat’s cheese, crumbled

1 tablespoon sunflower seeds

 

Place the pork in a shallow dish. Drizzle it with half of the oil. Sprinkle it with pepper. Rub the cracked pepper on the pork fillets and let it stand for at least fifteen minutes.

Heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Fry the pork for 6-8 minutes per side or until cooked. Transfer it to a plate and cover it. Let it stand for 5 minutes and then slice it into thin strips.

In the same pan, pour in the balsamic vinegar. Let it simmer for five minutes or until it is reduced in half.

Combine the strawberries, balsamic vinegar and lemon juice in a bowl. Toss until the strawberries are coated.

Place the salad leaves on a platter or large salad bowl. Add the pork and the strawberry mixture. Gently toss. Top it with the crumbled goat’s cheese and sunflower seeds. Serve immediately.
