This here fried pork pear sauce, it’s real good, you gotta try it. Easy to make, too. Just a few things from the kitchen, and you’re good to go.
First, you gotta get yourself some pork. Tenderloin, they call it. That just means it’s the soft, juicy part. Not that tough, chewy stuff. One pound, maybe two, depending on how many mouths you’re feeding. I like to get it when it is on sale, save a little bit of money, you know?
Then you need some pears. Not those hard ones, get the ripe, soft ones. Four, maybe five, depending on how big they are. They are going to make this sauce that is the best part of this whole thing.
Before you do anything, rub that pork with some spices. Makes it taste real good. I use a little bit of this and a little bit of that. Paprika, garlic powder, you know the ones, onion powder, some dried thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper. Just mix it all up in a bowl and rub it on the pork. Some people like it spicy, you can add something for that, too. But I like it simple.
Now, heat up some oil in a big pan. Not too much, just enough to cover the bottom. Olive oil is what they tell you to use. When it’s hot, put that pork in there. Cook it on all sides until it’s brown. Gotta make sure it is cooked all the way. Brown is good. Means it’s getting ready.
While the pork is getting brown, you can start on that pear sauce. This pear sauce, it’s just like applesauce, only with pears. You take those pears, peel ’em, cut ’em up. Get rid of that core in the middle, you don’t want that.
Some folks, they like to toast some fennel seeds. I don’t know what that is, but they say it makes it taste better. If you got ’em, toast ’em in a dry pan for a minute or two. Then you gotta crush ’em up. You can do that with a spoon, probably, or something heavy.
Then, you melt some butter in a pan. Real butter, not that fake stuff. Put those pears in there. Cook them until they’re soft. Mash them up a little. You can add some spices, you know. Cinnamon, maybe. Some of that cardamom, if you got it. Pepper, too, if you like. The spices are really what make it taste good.
When your pork is done, get it out of the pan. Let it sit for a bit. You can get rid of most of the oil, just leave a little bit. Then you can add some more butter. Put some shallots in there if you got them. And ginger. Cook that for a minute. It will smell very good, and taste good, too.
