I whipped this recipe up in my head last night after visiting Chelsea Market earlier in the day, seeing all the fish they were selling breaded, seasoned and pretty.
I decided to use my special curry that Chef Angelo ground for me. Ironically, we visited Angelo today at his new restaurant, Social Eatz, and he asked if I had finished the curry he made for us. I said no, and continued to tell him that I had just used it in a recipe the night before. He asked to see a picture! (LOL, Angelo knows that I take pictures of the recipes I cook because he knows how I blog.)
Jeremy showed him the picture of the plated curry loin and his response was, “Wow, so avant-garde! And the pork is nicely cooked!” LOL
I asked how he knew that from looking at my iPhone picture, and he said by the color of the meat – it’s nice and pink. It’s true, I am so very careful about overcooking my pork. I take it out when the internal temperature reads 130 … just the way we like it!
By the way, this recipe is so, so yummy!
