Step by step recipe

1	Peel and rinse the carrots, turnips and leeks. Dice all the vegetables small and cook briefly until barely tender in boiling salted water. Cool rapidly in cold water, then drain thoroughly. Set aside.
2	Prepare 250 g green cabbage and shred into fine ribbons. Set aside.
3	Peel 150 g peanuts, if still in the skins.
4	Put the peanuts into a frying pan on high heat to dry roast them (you can also do this in the oven). Set aside.
5	Cut 400 g filet mignon (pork loin) into small pieces.
6	In a sauté pan (or wok) over high heat, pour in 3 tablespoons sesame oil. When it’s hot, add the pieces of meat, season with salt and pepper, and stir-fry until the meat is golden brown. Add 2 tablespoons soy sauce and let it reduce.
7	Add the vegetables and mix well.
8	At the last minute, add the peanuts, parsley and chopped chives. Mix well and serve immediately.

Remarks

For the herbs, use whatever you have available: parsley and chives, of course, but coriander, spring onion (scallion), chervil or others, too.
