Pork tenderloin cooked sous-vide is glorious. Tender and juicy with a hint of spice and herbs. I actually cooked this for another recipe, Cheatin' pork enchiladas as I needed pre cooked tenderloin. This would be fabulous cooked as it is but if you are going to use it in another recipe, try to avoid overcooking the pork in the second recipe or you will lose the benefit of cooking sous vide.

Method

  1. If you have a meat tenderiser with metal blades, stamp the tenderloin all over, on both sides.
  2. Cut the pork fillet into 2 pieces so it will fit into a large vacuum bag together with the onion a herbs.
  3. Seal the bag at one end and add the pork tenderloin, onion, herbs and spices.
  4. Hold the bag closed and shake well to mix.
  5. Wipe the edge to be sealed with a paper towel to ensure it seals properly.
  6. Vacuum seal the bag. I like to seal twice at both ends, but that's just the pessimist in me!
  7. Cook sous vide at 59° C for up to 9 hours or at least a minimum of 3 hours.
  8. Once cooked, discard the onions and herbs and any juices.
  9. If you want to brown the outside, cook in a hot pan with a little butter for a few minutes, adding an extra blast of a blowtorch if you have one.
  10. Slice and serve!

Chef's notes

If you are using Old India Taco Seasoning, don't add any salt or pepper as this mix is pretty salts already. However, without Old India taco seasoning, this would be delicious with just a grind of pepper and a pinch of salt added before sealing the bag.
