Pork tenderloin, brushed with mustard and rubbed with garlic, is pan-fried until crispy, then finished in the oven, resulting in an incredibly juicy interior with a wonderfully savory exterior. Slice it thinly and serve with a spelt salad with greens in a vinaigrette and baked artichokes.



The recipes use measuring containers with the following volumes:
1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.
2/3 cup (st.) - 160 ml.
1/2 cup (st.) - 125 ml.
1/3 cup (st.) - 80 ml.
1/4 cup (st.) - 60 ml.
1 tablespoon (tbsp) - 15 ml.
1 teaspoon (tsp) - 5 ml.
1/5 teaspoon (tsp) - 1 ml.

Ingredients for the recipe:


  • 3/4 cup spelt
  • 1 large pork tenderloin (about 600 g)
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 cloves garlic, grated

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F). Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the spelt and cook until tender, about 25 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, season the pork with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of freshly ground black pepper. In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, 1 teaspoon mustard, and garlic; coat the pork with the mixture. In a large ovenproof skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning, until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.

  3. Scatter the artichokes around the pork and place the pan in the oven. Bake until a thermometer inserted into the center of the pork tenderloin registers 145°F (63°C), about 15 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 teaspoon mustard. Add the spelt, pecorino cheese, green onions, mint, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of freshly ground black pepper; toss to distribute evenly. Slice the pork. Serve with artichokes and spelt salad.
