Another HelloFresh hit we all really enjoyed. These guys are really really good at what they do, aren’t they?!

Their blurb says: “Pork loin steak is a really succulent cut of meat, making it the perfect thing to serve alongside a rich and creamy peppercorn sauce. Simple, comforting, and quick to make. Make this a go-to recipe.” We couldn’t agree more!

How ours was different:

• Our pork was steamed in the Varoma dish which is actually a great way to keep it moist during cooking and make it healthier too. (and saves on washing up!!!).
• We used a bit of cornflour to thicken the sauce.

1. Preheat your oven to 200C.

7. Add 200ml boiling water and 1 chicken stock pot to the mixing bowl. Insert Varoma into place and cook for 20 minutes / Varoma / Speed 1 (or until the pork is cooked).
