Pork Medallions with Onion Sauce

Instructions

• 1
  Prepare your favorite side dish, such as boiled potatoes or mashed potatoes. If the sauce reduces too much during cooking, you can add 100 ml of water when blending it.
• 2
  Wash and pat dry the pork loin, then cut it into slices approximately 1 cm thick. Season each slice with salt and pepper on both sides.
• 3
  Peel the onion and garlic. Roughly chop the onion, and grate the garlic cloves on a fine grater.
• 4
  Heat 30 ml of sunflower oil in a deep pan over high heat. When the oil is hot, add the meat slices and fry them quickly for 4 minutes on each side. Remove the meat to a plate and keep it warm.
• 5
  In the same pan, over medium heat, add the chopped onion and sauté it in the remaining fat for 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden.
• 6
  Add the tomato paste, grated garlic, and chili flakes to the sautéed onion. Sauté everything for another 1 minute over high heat.
• 7
  Reduce the heat to low and pour 700 ml of beef broth into the pan. Add the bay leaf, salt, pepper, and the fried meat slices. Cover and simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 35-40 minutes.
• 8
  After the time has passed, remove the meat and bay leaf from the pan. Discard the bay leaf. Add 70 ml of cooking cream to the pan and blend everything with an immersion blender until you get a smooth sauce.
• 9
  Return the meat to the pan with the sauce and let it simmer together for another 3-4 minutes over low heat.

  Distribute the pork medallions with onion sauce onto plates and serve them warm. Enjoy your meal!
