Pork Medallions with Vanilla Rum Cream Sauce image

The vanilla-rum-cream combination is out of this world. I would suggest actually making DOUBLE the sauce if you want the pasta to be nice and creamy. If you are serving over rice, or with potatoes, the regular amount should be fine. Serve along with some lightly steamed broccoli or green beans and you have an easy, yet elegant looking dish. From Food and Drink Magazine, Spring 2003 (IMPORTANT NOTE: Please do NOT substitute the vanilla bean for vanilla extract! It won't taste the same. The DARK rum is critical as well - the flavour is far more INTENSE than a white or amber rum. Try Meyers Dark, Pussers or Appleton.)
