Pork Fillet Medallions
You really can make one pork fillet go a long way with this method. It is very easy to do,
You can choose to add stock or half cream and half stock or just cream.
When serving in restaurants,I made it with cream and a drop of stock.
The coating is so good with pork fillet it protects the meat while cooking and adds great flavour. Feel free to try different herbs and spices in the flour to get a taste you really like.
