First cut the pork loin into finger-thick slices and then into strips. Peel carrots & cut into sticks or slices. Peel the kohlrabi and cut into sticks or cubes. Take the peas out of the fridge and prepare them to thaw.
Next, heat up a large pan with a good dash of oil, add the meat to the hot pan & sear over medium to high heat for 3 – 4 minutes, season with salt & pepper to taste while turning occasionally. Lift the meat out of the pan and set aside.
Then put the carrot & kohlrabi sticks in the pan, season them with a good pinch of salt and pour in about 100 milliliters of water. Cook the vegetables with the lid closed over medium heat for about 7 – 8 minutes until the desired doneness.
Once the vegetables have reached your desired doneness, return the meat to the pan, also add the defrosted peas, 300 grams crème fraîche & ½ teaspoon nutmeg. Mix everything together well, bring to the boil & simmer briefly again until everything has reached a creamy consistency.
Finally, season the meat strips with veggies with a dash of lemon juice to taste & then place on deep plates & serve. Have fun cooking!
