Bring a small pot with 2 cups of very lightly salted water to boil over high heat. Put a colander in the sink. Prepare a baking sheet with foil and cooking spray. Peel turnips and cut to ½" dice. Trim ends of green beans. Peel and thinly slice onion. Stem parsley and mince. 2 Cook the Turnips and Prepare the Pork Loin Add turnips to boiling water and cook over medium heat until tender, about 15-18 minutes. Rinse pork tenderloin and pat dry. Cut five 1" long, ½" deep, slits into two sides of tenderloin. Place one bay leaf into each slit, folding and breaking bay leaf where necessary.

Place green beans, tomatoes, and onions on baking sheet next to the tenderloin. Drizzle with 1 tsp. olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly and place baking sheet in the oven. Roast until vegetables are tender and slightly browned and the tenderloin has reached a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, about 10 minutes. 4 Mash the Turnips Drain turnips and return to pot. Add 1 Tbsp. butter, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste and mash with potato masher or fork. 5 Make the Sauce Place pan used for browning the pork over medium high heat. When pan gets hot, add white wine. Bring to a boil and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in mustard. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Swirl in remaining 1 Tbsp. butter to finish sauce. 6 Plate the Dish Put mashed turnips and mixed vegetables on plate. Thinly slice pork loin and place on plate. Spoon sauce over pork.

DANISH CLASSICS: MøRBRADGRYDE (PORK TENDERLOIN IN CREAM SAUCE)

• Cook bacon until well crispy and fat has rendered out, remove bacon to a blow on the side but keep fat in pot.
• Raise heat to medium-high and brown tenderloin medallions thoroughly on both sides, about 1-2 minutes per side. When thoroughly brown, remove tenderloin medallions and place with the bacon.
• Dump button mushrooms in pot along with a heavy pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally.
• Liquid will quickly render out of the mushrooms and they will start to boil, let them, the water will soon evaporate.
• Once water has evaporated, the mushrooms will start to fry and caramelize. Cook them till thoroughly brown and delicious, then throw in the butter and let it melt and absorb into the mushrooms.
• Remove mushrooms from pot, lower the heat to low and immediately dump in the shallots, carrots and celery along with a splash of cooking oil. Then add the tarragon, thyme and paprika.
• Cook stirring occasionally for about five minutes till soft and fragrant.
• Add garlic and tomato paste and let this heat through for a minute.
• Add chopped tomatoes, bay leaf, star anise and chicken stock, stir everything together and raise heat until pot comes to a simmer, back down the heat to maintain a slow simmer.
• Dump bacon, pork and mushrooms back into pot and add the cream, a dash of hot sauce, a dash of fish sauce and two dashes of sherry vinegar.
• Add cocktail wieners to pot and stir everything to combine.
• Let pot simmer away for about half an hour or until pork is cooked through, then add the juice of half an orange along with the Cointreau and let cook for another couple of minutes.
• Give the sauce a taste and adjust seasoning if needed. If it tastes entirely too sweet, consider adding another dash or two of sherry vinegar to offset the sweetness.
