Pork Cutlets with Apple and Cucumber Relish
Matt SinclairIngredients:
Serves: 4
- 4 pork cutlets, 1 inch thick
Marinade:
- 4 cloves garlic
- 2 tbsp ground cumin
- 2 tbsp ground coriander
- 1 tbsp ground turmeric
- 1 tbsp chilli flakes
- 3 tbsp fish sauce
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp oil
Salad:
- 1 Lebanese cucumber, peeled, diced
- 1 large green apple, cored, peeled, diced
- 1 cup picked Thai basil
- 1 cup picked mint leaves
- ½ cup picked Vietnamese mint
- 2 long red chillies, sliced (optional)
- Juice of 1 lime
- Pinch salt
- Pinch sugar
Method:
- Add all marinade ingredients into a blender and blitz until smooth. Cover the pork cutlets generously in a non-reactive container and leave for at least an hour, ideally overnight.
- Heat BBQ Grill to high (approximately 260C) and place cutlets side down on the grill leaning on one another to begin rendering out the fat. After 3-4 minutes place them down flat on a new section of the grill for a couple of minutes either side. Rest for at least 10 minutes.
- Combine all salad ingredients and season with a touch of sugar and salt, this will draw out moisture from the cucumber and apple to create a bit of a dressing. Slice pork and serve.
