"Pork filet is a lean, tender piece of meat which is best when juicy and tender. Be sure to let the meat rest before you serve it and you will enjoy the tasty herbs and spices which compliment this filet." -- EclecticCooking.com

Ingredients:

1 pork filet (about 1 lb)
Olive oil extra
1 large clove of garlic
1 large chilli pepper, seeds removed
Grated rind of 1/2 lemon
1/2 tsp salt
Small bunch of coriander, chopped
2-3 sprigs of mint, chopped
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 Tbsp live oil

Directions:

Mince the garlic and chilli pepper and mix with the salt, lemon rind, coriander, mint, cumin, lemon juice and olive oil. In a heavy skillet brown the pork filet on all sides in a little olive oil. Spread half of the herb mixture over the pork filet and bake in the oven for 25 minutes at 400F (200C)

Remove from oven, cover and let the meat rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving with scalloped potatoes or cous cous.
