Pork Medallions with Mixed Roast Vegetables and Roast celeriac.
Serves 2
Ingredients
Two Boneless Pork Loin Chops or Medallions of pork if your supermarket/butcher has some.
Half a Red Pepper
Half a Yellow Pepper
Half a Green Pepper
Half a Celeriac
1 small red onion
1 Tomato (not the small cherry ones)
4 medium to small sized close cup mushrooms
Salt, Pepper, Mixed Herbs
Olive Oil
Method
Prepare Mixed Vegetables:
Deseed peppers then cut into small ‘squares’
Roughly chop the onion
Cut tomato and mushrooms into four.
The ‘left over peppers’ can be kept for another day in a sealed bowl or just wrap in cling film.
Place these vegetables in a Pyrex or similar oven proof dish, add salt, pepper and mixed herbs to taste.
Splash over some olive oil and bake in a pre-warmed oven for about 40 minutes at 200c. Regulo 6. It is important to turn and baste the vegetables every ten minutes or so to stop them from burning.
Cut celeriac in half and then slice and cut into small cubes. Put in a separate oven proof dish, splash over some olive oil and bake in the oven along with the mixed vegetable. Again baste/turn the celeriac every ten minutes or so.
Prepare and Cook Meat.
Cut off any fat (if you prefer) on the meat using scissors or a sharp knife and cut the remaining meat into chunks. Place in a frying pan with a knob of butter (not too hot) turn continuously for about five minutes. To check it is well cooked cut a medallion in half. It should be lightly pink in the centre only.
When serving add a little gravy.

Looks a very tasty meal, and I find pork is usually very keenly priced.
This would work well with chicken too.
Well whatever you fancy really.
Low carb is definitely tasty.

I love your blog and this is my first comment so I hope it comes through ok.
This looks yet another plateful of great food.
Celariac just adds such a lovely taste to many meals and this looks delicious.
Did you cook the pork in the oven too or use a frying pan - my guess would be a frying pan with a little oil.
Thanks
Kate
Hi Kate your right, frying pan with a little olive oil. Not too hot. Thanks for the kind words. How anyone can say lowcarb is boring or hard to do is beyond me.
