Description

A quick dish with ingredients I generally have around. The pork was really tender cooked like this, it was tasty and it looked appealing too.

Method

1
Place the pork slices, a few at a time, between 2 sheets of waxed paper or clingfilm and pound slices to 1/4-inch thickness with a meat mallet.
Coat a 10-inch non-stick frying pan with olive oil, and heat until very hot. Add pork slices in a single layer and cook pork for about 6 minutes, turning once halfway.
Meanwhile place the cornflour in a cup, add a little of the orange juice and stir until smooth. Add the garlic, cayenne, cumin, thyme, and salt.

Transfer the pork to a warm platter, cover to keep warm. Add the rest of the orange juice to the pan, bring to a boil scraping bottom with a spatula to loosen any browned bits. Add the onions, green and red peppers. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, until vegetables are tender.

Off the heat, stir the cornflour mix into the vegetables. Then cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the pork and warm before serving with rice and a sprinkling of spring onions.
