2 tablespoon(s)

Pork loin steak, lean, raw

200 g

Calorie controlled cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Carrots, raw

1 medium

Sweet potato, raw

1 medium

Red onion

1 small

Garlic

2 clove(s)

Instructions

1

In a bowl, make a marinade by mixing together the honey, 2 teaspoons of the harissa paste and all of the lemon juice.

2

Put the pork between two pieces of cling film and bash with a rolling pin to flatten. Add to the bowl with the marinade and turn to coat well. Cover and set aside to marinate for 5 minutes.

3

Make the ‘noodles’. Mist a large nonstick frying pan with cooking spray and heat over a medium heat. Add the carrot, sweet potato, onion, garlic and cumin seeds. Season to taste, add a few drops of water and cook for 5-6 minutes until the sweet potato is tender but retains some bite. Add a little more water if it starts to catch. Stir in the chopped coriander and cook for another minute.

4

Meanwhile, mist a nonstick griddle pan with cooking spray and heat over a medium heat. Season the pork all over and griddle for 6-8 minutes, turning once, until cooked through. In a small bowl, combine the remaining harissa paste and the yogurt with a splash of water to make a thin dressing.

5

Add the rocket and the yogurt dressing to the ‘noodles’ and toss to wilt the rocket slightly, then divide between plates. Top with the pork steaks and serve with the lemon wedges for squeezing.
