20 minutes
Pork tenderloin medallions are a refined dish that combines the tenderness of meat with the aromatic spiciness of spices and the creamy stretchiness of suluguni cheese. This recipe embodies an author's approach to cooking, creating a harmony of textures and flavors. Mustard and sumac add a light tang to the meat, while tomatoes provide a refreshing acidity that highlights its rich taste.
