Pork Tenderloin with Apples
by:
To make this dish, you prepare and sauté the pork noisettes in the same way as for Pork Tenderloins with Mushroom Sauce, but apples and apple juice replace the sautéed mushrooms and pureed mushroom sauce. The Calvados, apple brandy from Normandy adds a note of authentic flavor, but it can be omitted. Makes 4 main-course servings.

preparation
1. Trim off the silver skin that covers the tenderloins.
2. Cut the tenderloins into slices about 1 inch thick.
3. Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed sauté pan just large enough to hold the noisettes in a single layer. Add only 2 or 3 noisettes for the first minute.
4. When you have added all the noisettes, keep the pan over the highest heat until well browned. Turn the noisettes two or three at a time and wait for 30 seconds before turning more.
5. Take the hoisettes out of the pan and pour out the burned oil. Deglaze the pan with whatever you choose. Here, broth is used.
6. To give the sauce more body, add a little meat glaze. Simmer the sauce until it is lightly syrupy.
7. Whisk in butter. Season with salt and pepper.
8. Spoon the sauce over the noisettes and serve.
