• Meanwhile, thinly slice leek. Trim and halve green beans. Pick and thinly slice sage. Zest lemon to get a pinch and slice into wedges. Finely chop garlic. • In a medium bowl, combine Nan's special seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add pork loin steaks, then turn to coat.

• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, add pork loin steaks and cook until cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Transfer to a plate, cover and rest for 5 minutes.

TIP: The spice blend will char slightly in the pan, this adds to the flavour!
