Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Pull out a large frying pan, a medium frying pan, a medium bowl, a small bowl, a peeler & a sieve
Time to fry
- Place the pork into the medium bowl and toss with the Jerk seasoning, 2 tsp oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well
- Heat the large frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork and cook for 9 mins, until cooked through
- Meanwhile, drain the sweetcorn. Heat the medium frying pan with 1 tsp oil on high heat. Once hot, add the sweetcorn and cook for 5-6 mins, or until deep golden brown
Make the salad & dressing
- Thinly slice the spring onions. Cut the avocado into 2 cm cubes. Halve the tomatoes. Trim and roughly chop the lettuce. Drain the black beans
- Wash out the pork bowl, then add the prepped veg, beans and charred sweetcorn. Toss to combine, then add the juice from half the lime. Season well with salt and pepper
- In the small bowl, mix the juice from the remaining lime, the garlic paste, 2 tsp oil and the chilli paste (to taste)
Plate up
- Check your meat is cooked through; it should be golden brown, steaming hot, the juices should run clear when cut and there should be no pink / rare meat inside
- Share the salad between bowls, topped with the Jerk pork. Drizzle over the dressing
