Pork & Classic Blue Cheese Sauce
with boiled baby potatoes
As Chefs, we have to be willing to try foods outside of our comfort zone, like blue cheese. Once you savour this creamy and earthy sauce poured over a pan-fried piece of salty pork kassler, you won’t look back, Chef! Served with butter-coated baby potatoes and spinach, with cruncy walnuts and fresh parsley for that fancy touch.

BUTTERY BABY POTATOES
Place the baby potatoes in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until soft, 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot with a knob of butter and the Spinach. Replace the lid and shake the pot until the butter is melted and the leaves are wilted. Season and set aside.
NOMU-SPICED PORK
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, 3-4 minutes per side. In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter (optional) and the NOMU rub.
BLUE CHEESE SAUCE
Return the pan to a medium-low heat. Add the Cream and simmer until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes (stirring occasionally). Add the blue cheese and stir until the cheese has melted, 1-3 minutes. Season and cover.
