Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Pork tenderloin — Make sure to cut the pork into bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking and tenderness.
  • Fresh dill — For the best flavor, use fresh dill instead of dried dill. If fresh dill is not available, you can substitute with dried dill, but reduce the amount to 1 tablespoon.

Tips & Tricks

  • For a richer flavor, marinate the pork in a mixture of garlic, paprika, and caraway seeds for a few hours before cooking.
  • If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can add a slurry of cornstarch and water to the skillet during the last few minutes of cooking.
  • Adjust the amount of dill according to your personal preference for a stronger or milder dill flavor.
  • To make the dish more colorful, you can add some sautéed bell peppers or mushrooms to the sauce.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated the next day for an equally delicious meal.
