Spice up a mid-week pork dinner with this feisty Asian slaw.
Ingredients
- 1/4 white cabbage, shredded
- 1/4 red cabbage, shredded
- 1 carrot, finely shredded
- 1 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup mint leaves
- 1 cup coriander leaves
- 1 kaffir lime leaf, shredded
- 1/4 cup (60ml) rice vinegar
- 1 tbs caster sugar
- 2 tbs soy sauce
- 1 1/2 tbs lime juice
- 2 tbs fish sauce
- 2 long red chillies, seeds removed, finely chopped
- 4 x 170g pork cutlets
- 1 tbs sunflower oil
- 2 tbs soy sauce
- 1 tbs honey
Method
- Step 1To make the Asian slaw, place the cabbage, carrot, onion, mint, coriander and kaffir lime leaf in a bowl. Combine rice vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, lime juice, fish sauce and chilli in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Toss the slaw with the dressing and set aside.
- Step 2Drizzle the pork with the oil and season. Place a frypan over medium-high heat, then cook the pork for 2-3 minutes each side until golden. Reduce the heat to medium-low, then whisk the soy sauce and honey together and drizzle over the pork. Cook, turning, for a further 3-4 minutes until the pork chops are caramelised and cooked through.
- Step 3Serve the pork cutlets with the spicy Asian slaw.
