Pork fillet with mustard & herbs
What could be better than the sweetness of pork fillet on a warm evening, with a glass of decent wine?
Difficulty and servings
Serves 6
Preparation and cooking times
Ready in just less than an hour- Preheat the oven to fan 160C/ conventional 180C/gas 4. Make the herb paste by blitzing the olive oil, lemon zest, parsley and basil in a food processor, adding black pepper to taste. Set aside. Trim the pork fillets of any membrane, season and brush with the 2 tbsp olive oil.
- Heat a dry, heavy-based frying pan, then sear the fillets over a high heat until nicely coloured all over. Transfer to a roasting tin and roast for 30 minutes.
- Brush the roasted fillets with mustard, then smother with the herb paste (hands are fine for this). Slice the fillets on the diagonal and serve with creamy potatoes and a green veg.
