Pork Tenderloin with Spiced Rhubarb Chutney

This elegant pork tenderloin with spiced rhubarb chutney is a sophisticated choice for those seeking a high-protein meal that doesn't compromise on flavour. The sharpness of fresh seasonal rhubarb is beautifully balanced with cider vinegar, warm ginger, and aromatic spices like cumin and cloves. This creates a vibrant, tangy glaze that cuts through the richness of the tender pork perfectly, offering a modern twist on the classic fruit and meat pairing.

Ideal for a weekend dinner or an impressive mid-week treat, this dish is surprisingly simple to prepare. The chutney can even be made a day in advance to allow the savoury and sweet notes to develop fully. Serve the sliced medallions with a side of steamed seasonal greens or crushed new potatoes for a complete and nutritiously balanced British meal.
