The marinade on these pork medallions is intense, so it takes only a few minutes to impart flavor. Sunset reader Karen Fukui of Olympia, Washington, shared the recipe. Ingredients:
1 stalk fresh lemongrass, stem and coarse leaves trimmed, cut into chunks |
1 tablespoon sugar |
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce |
1 tablespoon fish sauce |
1 quarter-size slice fresh ginger |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
a few cilantro sprigs, plus leaves for garnish |
1 tablespoon thai red curry paste |
1 garlic clove |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
1 pound pork tenderloin, cut into 1/2-in. slices |
Directions:
1. Heat grill to high (450° to 550°). In a food processor, pulse all ingredients except for pork into a paste, adding a bit of water if needed. In a medium bowl, mix pork with paste. Let sit 15 minutes. 2. Grill pork, turning once, until browned, about 6 minutes total. Serve with rice, vegetables, and cilantro leaves. 3. *Find in grocery stores' Asian foods aisle. 4.
