Cooked and enjoyed Marks and Spencers’ Pork Medallions with a cider and shallot sauce.
I normally prefer to cook my own sauces than use shop ones, but as I was in Marks and Spencers and looking at their The Cook Menu range decided to give it a go.
Whatever you fancy for dinner and whatever the occasion, M&S’s NEW The Cook Menu has something to offer. You’ll find a variety of exciting dishes, inspired by flavours from around the world, which all use the very best ingredients: fresh vegetables, sustainable fish and quality cuts of meat from M&S-approved farms. The preparation work has been done for you, so you can concentrate on the enjoyment of cooking and add an individual touch.
So what do you get?
Well you get some pork fillet sliced and a sachet of sauce, not enough sauce really, more would have been nice.
So you pan fry the pork and then remove from the pan and heat through the sauce.
I served mine with some rice and steamed vegetables.
It wasn’t that bad actually, quite good really.
Yes you could do this all yourself, however I didn’t have a huge amount of time, and nor did I have the ingredients for the sauce and that’s the real time and money saver with these.
Would I buy it again, yes I would.
