Ingredients

  • 2 Pork
  • 200ml White Wine
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika
  • 2 Lemon
  • 1/2 Lemon Juice
  • Dash Olive Oil
  • To serve Mayonnaise
  • 1 kg Potatoes
  • For frying Vegetable Oil

Instructions

1
STEP 1 Cut the tenderloins into 5 equal-size pieces leaving the tail ends a little longer.
2
Take a clear plastic bag and slip one of the pieces in.
3
Bash it into an escalope the size of a side-plate with a rolling pin and repeat with the remaining pieces.
4
STEP 2 Put the wine, paprika, some seasoning and pepper and the extract of ½ a lemon in a mixing bowl and mix in the pork.
5
Leave to augment the taste for 20-30 moments, while you get your barbecue to the stage where the coals are glowing but there are no flames.
6
STEP 3 To make the chips, fill a basin with cool aqua and cut the potatoes into 3cm-thick chips.
7
Soak them in the aqua for 5 moments and then change the aqua.
8
Leave for 5 more moments.
9
strain and then pat arid on a towel or with kitchen paper.
10
STEP 4 scalding up the cooking oil in a deep fryer or a deep heavy-based skillet with a lid to 130C and lower the chips into the cooking oil (in batches).
11
Blanch for 8-10 moments.
12
Remove from the cooking oil and strain well.
13
Place on a tray to cool.
14
Reheat the cooking oil to 180C (make sure it’s scalding or your chips will be soggy) and lower the basket of chips into the cooking oil (again, do this in batches).
15
Leave to prepare for 2 moments and then give them a little shake.
16
prepare for another minute or so until they are well coloured and crisp to the touch.
17
strain well for a few moments, tip into a mixing bowl and shower with sea seasoning.
18
STEP 5 The pork will prepare quickly so do it in 2 batches.
19
Take the pieces out of the marinade, rub them with cooking oil, and drop them onto the barbecue (you could also use a chargrill).
20
prepare for 1 minute on each side – they may flare up as you do so.
21
This should really be enough time as they will keep on making.
22
Take them off the barbecue and pile onto a plate.
23
Repeat with the remaining batch.
24
STEP 6 enjoy by piling a plate with chips, drop the pork on top of each pile and pouring the juices from the plate over so the chips take up the flavours.
25
Top with a spoon of mayonnaise and a wedge of lemon.
