    I needed to get over my “fear” of cooking pork, just needed a recipe to convince me that it was in fact going to be just fine. This recipe did just that – super easy for a mid-week dinner and very tasty! Pork fillet is so tender and delicious. I used what ingredients I had available and substituted couscous for Bulgar wheat – I also used a lot more parsley as was short on mint and added fresh thyme too. Great recipe, TASTE!
