Grilled Pork And Ratatouille Food

HERB & GARLIC PORK WITH SUMMER RATATOUILLE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large non-stick pan and fry the onions for 5 mins or until softened. Stir in the peppers, aubergine, courgettes and garlic, and cook, stirring, for a few mins. Tip in the tomatoes and 1 can of water, then stir in the bouillon, thyme and basil stalks. Cover and simmer for 20 mins or until tender. Stir through the basil leaves.
• Meanwhile, rub the pork with the garlic, then scatter with the thyme and some black pepper, patting it so it sticks all over. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and cook the pork for about 12 mins, turning frequently so it browns on all sides, until tender but still moist. Cover and rest for 5 mins.
• If you're making this as part of the Healthy Diet Plan, set aside half of the pork to use in the curried pork bulghar salad later in the week and store in the fridge once cooled. Chill the half of the ratatouille and use it to make the ratatouille pasta salad with rocket for another day. If you are serving four you can skip this step.
• To serve, slice the pork and serve with the ratatouille, some brown rice or new potatoes and some extra thyme.

• Place all cut vegetables and the tomatoes in a large shallow baking dish, add the 1/2 cup of olive oil, and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Place the vegetables on the grill and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, turning halfway through the cooking time. Remove the tomatoes, cover grill, and cook the remaining vegetables for 2 minutes, or until almost cooked through. Transfer vegetables to a cutting board and coarsely chop (leave tomatoes whole).

• In a small bowl, combine 2 cloves of garlic, the rosemary and 1 tablespoon of the oil. Spoon mixture evenly over pork; rub in with your fingers.

• Place rack in center of a large shallow roasting pan. Place tenderloin on rack. Arrange seasoned vegetables around edge of pan. (Vegetables don't need to be on rack.) Roast for 30 to 40 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of tenderloin registers 155 degrees. Remove tenderloin from roasting pan. Cover with foil and let stand 10 minutes before slicing. The temperature of the meat after standing should be 160 degrees.
• Transfer vegetables to a very large serving bowl; add tomatoes, capers and basil. Toss to combine. Season to taste with kosher salt and black pepper. Cover and let stand until pork is ready to serve.
