Want to whip up a Chinese-inspired feast without spending all day toiling away in the kitchen? You’re in luck! The main event is a flavoursome pork fillet that’s coated in a soy-ginger sauce.

The recent harsh weather conditions have impacted the cucumbers/zucchinis grown by our farmers. The quality and freshness is still the same, but they may be a little smaller than usual.

Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. In a medium saucepan, add the water and bring to the boil. Add the jasmine rice and chicken stock powder, stir, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes. Add the crushed peanuts and stir to combine.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
Thinly slice the cucumber into rounds. Thinly slice the long red chilli (see ingredients). In a medium bowl, combine the rice wine vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. Add the cucumber and chilli (if using) to the pickling liquid. Add just enough water to just cover the cucumber and set aside until serving.
TIP: Slicing the cucumber very thinly helps it pickle faster!
In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a high heat. Season the premium pork fillet all over with salt and pepper. When the oil is hot, add the pork and sear until browned, 1 minute each side. Transfer the pork to a lined oven tray. Roast, 12-14 minutes for medium, or until cooked to your liking. Remove from the oven and cover with foil. Rest until serving. Meanwhile, return the pan to a medium heat. Add the soy-ginger stir-fry sauce and cook, until bubbling, 30 seconds. Transfer the sauce to a small bowl.
While the pork is cooking, trim the baby broccoli and cut into thirds. Trim the snow peas. Finely chop the garlic.
Wipe out and return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook the baby broccoli until tender, 5-6 minutes. Add the snow peas and cook, tossing, until bright green and just tender, 1-2 minutes. Add the garlic and ponzu sauce and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Season to taste.
Slice the pork and top with the soy-ginger sauce. Sprinkle the crispy shallots over the greens. Drain the pickled cucumber. Take everything to the table to serve.
