step-by-step

instructions

Cook Along

1 Prepare the ingredients & start the sauce

Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut out and discard the core of the cauliflower; cut into small florets. Medium dice the potatoes. Thinly slice the scallions, separating the white bottoms and hollow green tops. In a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, a drizzle of olive oil, and as much of the gochujang as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be. Add the cauliflower florets and diced potatoes; season with salt and pepper. Toss to thoroughly coat. In a separate bowl, whisk together the miso paste, vinegar, honey, sliced white bottoms of the scallions, and 1/2 cup of water.

2 Roast the vegetables

Line a sheet pan with foil. Place the seasoned vegetables on the foil; drizzle with olive oil and arrange in an even layer. Roast 26 to 28 minutes, or until lightly browned and tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from the oven.

3 Cook the pork

Meanwhile, pat the pork dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper on both sides. In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned pork. Cook 4 to 6 minutes per side for medium (the center may still be slightly pink), or until browned and cooked to your desired degree of doneness.* Leaving any browned bits (or fond) in the pan, transfer to a cutting board and let rest at least 5 minutes.

*The USDA recommends a minimum safe cooking temperature of 145°F for pork.

4 Finish the sauce & serve your dish

Add the sauce (carefully, as the liquid may splatter) to the pan of reserved fond. Cook on medium-high, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Turn off the heat. Stir in the butter until melted and combined. Slice the rested pork crosswise. Serve the sliced pork with the roasted vegetables. Top the pork with the finished sauce. Garnish with the sesame seeds and sliced green tops of the scallions. Enjoy!
