Method
- Take the pork out of the fridge to take the chill off. Grate the carrots into a bowl, add the sugar, vinegar and a pinch of salt, then mix well. Slice the pork into 2cm thick rounds, then press lightly with your hands to flatten.
- Crush the peppercorns (see tip) and sea salt to coarse crumbs in a pestle and mortar, add the flour and combine. Brush the pork with a little oil and toss in the salt and pepper mixture to coat lightly.
- Heat the 2 tbsp oil in a wide frying pan over a medium- high heat, add the pork and cook for 1½ minutes on each side (don’t overcrowd the pan).
- Slice the cucumber and mix with the carrot, then tear in the coriander. Serve with the pork and some steamed rice and lime wedges, if you like.
