Pork With Coriander And Red Wine
Ingredients
1 1/2 pound loin of pork
4 tsp. coriander seeds, crushed
1 tsp. black peppercorns, crushed
1 tsp. brown sugar
1 Tbsp. olive oil
3 C. dry red wine
3 Tbsp. butter
1/2 C. coriander leaves, coarsely chopped
Cooking Instructions
Cut the pork into 1 inch cubes and place them in a mixing bowl. Add 1 tsp. of the coriander seed, the peppercorns and sugar and stir well to blend. Cover the bowl and let marinate for a least 20 minutes If you can leave the meat for longer, you will need to pat it dry with a paper towel before cooking. Heat the oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the pork cubes in one layer. When the oil is quite hot, aromatic and almost smoking, add the meat. Cook, turning often to brown evenly, for about 2-3 minutes Add the wine to the skillet and bring to a boil, stirring. After 1-2 minutes, reduce the heat to low and cook gently, turning the meat occasionally, until the meat is tender and the wine reduced to about 4 Tbls.. This takes about 20 minutes. Add the butter and the remaining coriander seeds. Increase the heat to medium high and stir well to mix the melted butter with the wine for a few seconds Add the coriander leaves, toss to coat the meat and serve.
