Method

  • Mix the lime slices and parsley with the sherry, lime juice, capers and pink peppercorns. Spread over the pork and leave to marinate for 30 mins.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet and saute half the onions and both kinds of potatoes. Season with salt then add 1 2/3 cups of water. Cover and cook for 15-20 mins.
  • Peel and thinly slice the cucumber, sprinkle with salt and allow to drain. Mix the vinegar with 4 tbsp of water, the remaining onion, sugar and a pinch of pepper. Beat in 3 tbsp of the oil. Mix with the cucumber and set aside.
  • Remove the pork from the marinade and pat dry. Reserve the marinade. Heat 2-3 tbsp oil in a skillet and saute the cutlets for 3-4 mins, turning. Add the marinade and cook briefly.
  • Drain half the water from the potatoes, add the milk and mash to a puree. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve the pork with the mashed potato and cucumber salad.
