Ingredients
4 Lean thick pork loin steaks (about 2cm thickness)
50g (2oz) Mozzarella cheese or similar, thickly sliced into 4
8 Fresh sage leaves
4 Slices Parma style ham or streaky bacon
Seasoning
15mlsp (1tbsp) Olive oil
Preparation
Pre-heat oven to Gas Mark 4, 180ºC, 350ºF. Place empty tray in oven to heat through also.
Place the pork steaks on a board, with a sharp knife carefully make a slit horizontally into the non-fat edge of the pork. Continue until you have created a shallow pocket to stuff.
Take a slice of cheese and two sage leaves and push into the pocket. Season and wrap each steak in a slice of ham or bacon.
Heat oil in a frying pan and seal steaks on both sides. Place on the hot tray (that has been pre-heated in the oven) and cook for about 15-20 minutes until browned and cooked through.
Serving Suggestion
Serve with seasonal green salad, crushed new potatoes and mixed olives
