Karen's Pork Saltimbocca with Parmesan Roasties & Green Beans

Ingredients

  • 1 large Pork Steak, fat trimmed off and cut into 4 pieces
  • 4 slices of Prosciutto
  • 8 sage leaves
  • 5-6 tbsp of flour in a bowl for dusting
  • 40g butter
  • 150ml marsala
  • 1tsp grated lemon zest
  • Rapeseed OilBlack Pepper

Parmesan Roasties

  • 8 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and cut in half
  • Rapeseed Oil
  • Freshly grated Parmesan
  • Salt and pepper 

Method

  1. Place each of the pieces of pork in between 2 sheets of baking parchment and flatten with a rolling pin. You want it to be very thin but not to tear it.
  2. Heat a frying pan and when hot add 1-2 tbsp of oil.
  3. Lay the pork fillets on a board and place 1 slice of prosciutto on top of each fillet and 2 sage leaves on top of that. Using 2 toothpicks secure the prosciutto and sage in place.
  4. Season with a little black pepper before dredging in the flour and placing into the hot frying pan to cook for a few minutes on each side. Start with the prosciutto side up.
  5. Remove the pork from the pan when cooked and let it rest while you make the sauce.
  6. To make the sauce pour the marsala into the frying pan and allow it to bubble, take it off the heat and whisk in the butter.
  7. Arrange the pork on a plate and spoon the sauce over. 

Parmesan Roasties

  1. Parboil the potatoes for 5 mins, drain in a colander, place back in the saucepan with the lid on and give a good shake. 
  2. Coat the potatoes with some rapeseed oil, salt and pepper, and place into a hot oven 200 degrees for 40-45 mins or until they are crisp and golden on the outside and fluffy inside. 
  3. Remove from the oven, sprinkle generously with fresh parmesan, toss well and serve.
