Pork medallion or loin steak, raw

500 g, (4 x 125g)

Instructions

  1. Combine vinegar and honey in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add pork and turn to coat. Cover and marinate in fridge for at least 2 hours or ideally overnight.
  2. Combine couscous, cumin and stock cube in a large bowl. Pour over ⅔ cup (160ml) boiling water and stir to combine. Cover and stand for 5 minutes or until water is absorbed. Scrape with a fork to separate grains. Set aside to cool. Stir through juice and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Place watermelon and watercress in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and gently toss to combine.
  4. Heat a chargrill pan over medium-high heat and lightly spray with oil. Cook steaks for 5 minutes each side or until cooked through. Transfer to a plate, cover with foil and leave to rest for 5 minutes.
  5. Divide couscous and watermelon salad between plates and top with pork. Drizzle with any resting juices to serve.

Notes

TIP: Bulk up the couscous by adding a can of rinsed and drained chickpeas
