    Pork and Sage Saltimbocca

    Serves: 4–6

    INGREDIENTS

    600 grams pork fillet (we use Freedom Farms)
    large sage leaves
    ½ cup plain flour
    sea salt and freshly ground pepper
    olive oil
    butter
    toothpicks

    METHOD

    Cut the pork into 4 cm long pieces. Place cut side down between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound to ½ cm thick.

    Season both sides and top each piece with 1-2 sage leaves, securing with a toothpick. Place the flour in a shallow dish and season. Dust the pork in flour, shaking off the excess.

    Heat a little olive oil and butter in a large sauté pan and when sizzling add the pork, sage side down. Cook for 2 minutes each side until golden and just cooked through.

    Drain on kitchen towels and serve with the panzanella salad.

    We start by sharing what’s on the dish team’s radar, what we’re watching, listening to and reading. Harry Butterfield puts a twist on his Nonna’s agnolotti, Malissa Fedele reminds us of the importance of fibre, and Phoebe Holden fulfils a long-held dream, sitting down with Yotam Ottolenghi. Autumn is an abundant time, we make the most with pumpkin, kūmara, cabbage, cauliflower, feijoas, apples and pears. We’re dishing up dinners for two, including a Chicken Dumpling Lasagne, alongside easy weeknight meals. We honour our mums, revisit timeless classics, and add a little baking challenge. This issue, we encourage you to slow down, to enjoy writing your shopping list, and spending time in the kitchen. Because even when life feels relentless, there’s always space to share something delicious.
