Grilled Pork with Caper Sauce

This is my favorite easy-to-do recipe. I have tried it in one of the restaurants before but it was with white fish and figured out it would be nice to try it with pork, hence since I tried it at home, it became a regular on our dinner table.

Here's how to do it.

prepare the pork:
Sear the pork in very hot pan until slightly brown, grill in the oven for 20 minutes just cook the pork completely. While the pork is in the grill, prepare caper sauce.

prepare the caper sauce:
Sauté garlic and butter, add the the capers with brine, season with salt and pepper, partially crush the capers with the back of a spoon to release its flavor.

Take out the pork from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes, serve with the caper sauce on top.
Here, I served it with steamed potatoes and asparagus, but it also works well with rice.

Steamed Salmon with Broccoli Puree and Baby Potatoes

Steamed Salmon with broccoli puree and baby potatoes

This is one healthy meal. I don’t like broccoli very much when its whole but the puree was a trick! I incredibly love it! It was all mild flavors that needs some contrast to cut the mildness but a few freshly ground black pepper would do for me, but for hubby he added Tabasco sauce which was also great. The baby potatoes were quite a great substitute for rice for a change.

Ingredients:

2 slices of salmon

2 bouquet of Broccoli

½ kg baby potatoes

Salt and pepper

Procedure:

Season broccoli and salmon with salt and pepper. Steam broccoli together with the salmon for 10 minutes.

While steaming the fish, boil baby potatoes in salted water for 10 minutes.

Strain the baby potatoes and cut in half. In a very hot non-stick pan, pan roast the potatoes until the sides turn dark brown. Add finely chopped parsley at the last minute.

Place the broccoli in a blender or food processor, add a little bit of water used to steam the fish and broccoli (the drippings from the fish adds flavor), blitz until fine.

Assemble the dish by placing the fish on top of the bed of green puree, alongside the baby potatoes.
