Pan Roasted Walnut Crusted Pork Tenderloin with Roasted New Potatoes and corn and peach summer salsa (Repost from my old Blog)

makes 4 Portions
Ingredients:
Pork:
2 large pork tenderloins, cleaned of silverskin and fat
splash olive oil
50 g crushed, toasted walnuts
tablespoon grainy mustard
s + p
Potatoes:
one bag (or so) New potatoes
olive oil
s + p
season with salt and pepper and olive oil. roast until cooked through and golden brown.
Salsa:
2 corns on the cob
half red onion minced
bunch parsley chopped fine
2 fresh peaches, peeled and small diced
juice of one lime
half a red pepper small dice
s + p
grill off the corn and remove from the cob. combine with the red onion, peaches, parsley, lime juice and red pepper. season with salt and pepper to taste. add some chili flakes if you want too
Finishing:
Heat a pan with olive oil on high heat until smoking. season the pork tenderloin with salt and pepper and sear all sides in the hot pan.
Smear the mustard over the pork and top with the walnuts to make the crust. Make sure your pan is oven proof before you start, otherwise use a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. cook the pork to your desired doneness. 6-7 minutes at 450F for medium if your pork tenderloin is of average size.
cook the hell out of it if you like well done pork. (yuck) Rest the meat for a good five minutes before serving. this will allow the juices to redistribute and the pork will be even more delicious.
Sthe tenderloin on the bias and allow for half a tenderloin per person.
Either combine the potatoes with the salsa and serve cold, or reheat potatoes and serve hot, giving the dish a nice contrast temperatures.
Garnish with some nice parsley or something
Contrary to what people think, Pork is ok to eat medium and even medium rare. the meat will be very tender and a great deal more juicy than a well done tenderloin.

One of my Personal Favorites: Midnight Mile by the Bouncing Souls

MIDNIGHT MILE I've been dreaming under unfamiliar skies and talking to strangers lossed in nights passed in disguise why am i so long? why can't i say it all in song we come up empty face to face words i wish i could erase I've been hiding under unfamiliar skies and talking to strangers lossed in nights passed in disguise take this heart and put it with my bones (woahhh) and put them in a box and send them home and send them home we've been dreaming alone under different stars of a thousand smiles and of a thousand scars you walk me to the sun we walk through the rain we pass through the love and bask in the pain in the pain IN THE PAIN!!!! [x2] I'm a midnight mile from your home can I come in and warm my bones I'm a midnight mile from your home can I come in and warm my bones maybe it's time I get it right maybe this time I'll get it right Song and Lyrics by the Bouncing Souls















These are the members of my old band, The Barrymores. We were based out of Winnipeg, Manitoba. Unfortunately, my good friend Devin Mitchell was tragically killed in a snowmobiling accident close to 3 and a half years ago now.

Calgary

I've lived in calgary for about a month. In that time a great many things have happened to me. I had my first real mental breakdown. I've met some really amazing musicians, artists, photographers, skateboarders... the list goes on and on and on.

This brings me to my first point. I really enjoy calgary. there are many programs in place to help newcomers to this city. I hated toronto because there was a lack of this type of help available. I feel as if i fit in perfectly in calgary. This city reminds me alot of winnipeg, in the best way possible. the busses are the exact same, the weather is basically the same. the list goes on and on and on.
