Ingredients

• 500 grams pork fillet (tenderloin)
• 4 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
• 2 stalks scallions, chopped (for garnish)
• 2 teaspoons sesame seeds (for garnish)
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with aluminum foil or parchment paper.

Step 2

Trim any excess fat or sinew from the pork fillet and pat it dry with paper towels. Season the fillet with salt and black pepper on all sides.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Mix well to create the marinade.

Step 4

Brush half of the marinade over the pork fillet, ensuring it is evenly coated on all sides. Reserve the remaining marinade for later.

Step 5

Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. Sear the pork fillet for 2-3 minutes on each side until it is golden brown.

Step 6

Transfer the skillet (or place the fillet onto the prepared baking tray) into the preheated oven and roast for 18-20 minutes or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 63°C (145°F).

Step 7

During the last 5 minutes of cooking, brush the reserved marinade over the pork fillet to create a glossy glaze.

Step 8

Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into medallions.

Step 9

Garnish the sliced pork with chopped scallions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately with steamed rice and sautéed vegetables for a complete meal.
