  1. CAN I TAKE YOUR COAT?

    In a bowl, combine the ½ the sour cream, the grated cheese, and ½ the chopped chives. Carefully spoon the cheese mixture into the seed compartment of the halved jalapeños. Set aside. In a shallow dish, whisk 1 egg with 1 tsp of water. Prepare two more shallow dishes, one containing the cornflour (lightly seasoned) and the other containing the breadcrumbs. Lightly coat the jalapeño skin (the side that is not stuffed with cheese) in the cornflour, then the egg mixture, and lastly in the breadcrumbs. Dust off any excess in between coatings. Repeat with the remaining jalapeños. On completion, pop in the fridge to chill for 10-12 minutes.

  2. LET’S SALSA!

    In a bowl, combine the corn, the diced tomato, the diced red onion, seasoning, and a drizzle of oil. Loosen the remaining sour cream with a splash of water and season.

  3. MEXICAN PORK

    Place a pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the pork rump dry with some paper towel, and season. When the pan is hot, sear the steak fat-side down, for 3-5 minutes until crispy. Then, fry for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through (this time frame may depend on the thickness of the steak). During the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter and the spice blend. Remove from the pan on completion and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Lightly season the slices.

  4. FRY TIME

    Return the pan to a high heat with enough oil to cover the base. Once hot, fry the jalapeño poppers, on the crumbed side, for 2-4 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and drain on a paper towel.

  5. PORK & POPPERS!

    Serve the pork rump slices with the salsa and jalapeño poppers on the side. Serve the loosened sour cream as dipping sauce and garnish with the remaining chives. Delicious!
