PORK
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the pork dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the pork until browned, 4-6 minutes per side. In the final minute, baste with ½ the NOMU rub and a knob of butter. Remove from the pan and rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
CORN & BEANS
While the pork is on the go, place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When hot, fry the corn until lightly charred, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the drained beans and the remaining NOMU rub, and fry until warmed through, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat and season.
DRESSING
In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, ½ the chopped coriander, the lemon juice (to taste), and seasoning. Loosen with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency.
DINNER IS READY
In a salad bowl, make a bed of the rinsed green leaves. Scatter over the beans & corn, the diced tomatoes, and the chopped jalapeño (to taste). Top with the pork slices and drizzle over the tangy sour cream. Top with the drained feta and garnish with the remaining coriander. Well done, Chef!
