Hands on Time: 25 - 30 minutes
Overall Time: 30 - 35 minutes
Ingredients:
- Borlotti Beans
- Cabbage
- Cornflour
- Dried Cranberries
- Fresh Parsley
- Garlic Clove
- Garlic Cloves
- Green Beans
- Low Fat Fresh Milk
- Onion
- Onions
- Pork Kassler Loin Steak
- Stock & Herb Mix

From your kitchen:
- Oil (cooking, olive or coconut)
- Salt & Pepper
- Water
- Paper Towel
- Milk (optional)
PREP STEP
Boil the kettle. Dilute the stock & herb mix with 150ml of boiling water. Peel and finely slice ½ the onion. Peel and grate the garlic clove. Drain and rinse the borlotti beans. Rinse, trim and halve the green beans. Finely shred the cabbage. Rinse, pick and chop the parsley. Roughly chop the cranberries. Set all aside.
GOLDEN KASSLER
Pat the kassler dry with paper towel. Using a pair of kitchen scissors or a knife, make a few shallow incisions along the fat to prevent the kassler from buckling during frying. Place a pan over medium-high heat. When hot, sear the kassler, fat-side down, until crispy, 3-5 minutes. Flip the kassler and sear until browned but not fully cooked, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and rest for 1-2 minutes.
START THE SAUCE
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil, if necessary. When hot, sauté the sliced onion until soft, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated garlic and sauté until fragrant, 30-60 seconds (shifting constantly). Stir through the cornflour and fry for 30-60 seconds, (shifting constantly). Gradually mix in the diluted stock mix and milk (stirring continuously to prevent lumps). Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, 6-8 minutes (stirring occasionally).
CABBAGE & CRANBERRY SALAD
In a salad bowl, toss together the shredded cabbage, the chopped cranberries, ½ the chopped parsley, the vinegar, a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning. Set aside.
BEAN DUO & STEAK
When the sauce has thickened, add in the halved green beans and simmer until al dente, 3-4 minutes. In the final 1-2 minutes, stir through the rinsed borlotti beans and the cooked kassler steak until heated through. Add a splash of milk or water to the sauce if it is too thick. Season and remove the pan from the heat.
YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS!
Serve up the kassler steak and generously smother in the creamy pan sauce. Pile the sweet cabbage salad on the side. Garnish it all with the remaining parsley. Tuck in, Chef!
