Ingredients

Servings: 8

6 Pork fillets (approx. 350 g each)
7-10 Tbsp Pepper
30 Disc/s (approx. 300 g) Bacon
2 Onions
2 Garlic cloves
3 TABLESPOONS demerara sugar
2 TABLESPOONS Tomato paste
2 TABLESPOONS White wine vinegar
200 ml Soy sauce
1 tsp, heaped Cornstarch
2 TABLESPOONS Oil

Directions

1
Wash the fillets, dab dry and season with pepper. Wrap 5 slices of bacon around each fillet, place in an ovenproof dish and prick several times with a fork. Peel onions and garlic, dice very finely. Mix with sugar, tomato paste, vinegar and soy sauce. Pour the marinade over the fillets and turn them over. Cover and chill overnight.
2
Place the fillets together with the marinade on the fat pan. Roast in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 125 °C/circulating air: 100 °C/gas: see manufacturer) for approx. 1 1⁄2 hours.
3
Remove the fillets and let them drip off on kitchen paper. Pour frying stock through a sieve into a pot, bring to the boil. Stir starch and 2 tablespoons of water until smooth. Thicken sauce with it, season to taste. Heat oil in a large pan. Brown the fillets in it all around. Arrange fillets and drizzle with some sauce. Serve the rest of the sauce and roasted potato salad with it.
