Pork with persimmons and mustard greens is a delightful dish that combines the sweet and tangy flavors of persimmons with the savory and slightly bitter taste of mustard greens. This dish is a great way to enjoy the unique flavors of persimmons, which are often overlooked in Western cuisine. The pork is braised in a flavorful sauce made with soy sauce, rice wine, and ginger, and the persimmons and mustard greens are added towards the end of cooking, so that they retain their bright colors and flavors. The result is a dish that is both visually appealing and delicious.

The recipe also includes instructions for making a simple stir-fried mustard greens dish, which is a great side dish for the pork with persimmons. The stir-fried mustard greens are cooked with garlic, ginger, and soy sauce, and they have a slightly spicy and bitter flavor that complements the sweetness of the persimmons. The garlic chives add a touch of freshness and a mild oniony flavor to the dish. This dish is also very easy to make, and it can be ready in under 30 minutes.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds pork loin, tied
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound persimmons, tops trimmed, cut into 1 1/2-inch wedges
6 garlic cloves, peeled
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 bunch (14 ounces) mustard greens, large stems removed
1/2 cup Marsala wine

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Season pork with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place pork in a 12-inch cast-iron or other heavy ovenproof skillet.
  • Toss persimmons and garlic with oil; season with salt and pepper. Scatter around pork. Roast 15 minutes. Turn over persimmons, and continue to roast until pork reaches an internal temperature of 125 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer pork to a cutting board, tent with foil, and let rest 15 minutes (pork will continue to cook as it cools). Meanwhile, if persimmons are still firm, roast until fork-tender.
  • Transfer persimmons to a serving platter. Add mustard greens to pan. Season with salt, and saute over medium heat until tender, about 2 minutes. Transfer greens to platter. Add wine to pan, and cook until reduced by two-thirds. Thinly slice pork, and arrange on top of the persimmons and greens. Spoon sauce over top, and serve.
