Ingredients

• 2 Pork Tenderloins (about 1 pound each)
• 4 slices of Bacon
• 10 Roasted Piquillo Peppers (either jarred or fresh)
• 4 slices of Soft Cheese (such as Havarti or Monterey Jack)
• 3.5 oz Onion (about 1 small onion)
• 7 oz Cooking Cream (heavy cream)
• 2 Bay Leaves
• 4 cups Water
• Salt and Black Pepper to taste

Instructions

Preparing the Tenderloin:

1. Open the Tenderloins: Make a longitudinal cut without separating them completely. Open each tenderloin as if it were a book.
2. Season: Sprinkle salt and black pepper generously on both sides of the tenderloin.
3. Stuff: Place 2 slices of bacon, 2 roasted peppers, and 2 slices of cheese in each tenderloin. Carefully close them up.
4. Tie the Tenderloins: Use kitchen twine to secure the tenderloins and keep the filling in place.
5. Prepare the Varoma: Place the stuffed tenderloins in the Varoma tray and cover it.

Steaming:

1. Prepare the Thermomix Bowl: Fill the Thermomix bowl with 4 cups of water and add the bay leaves.
2. Cook: Set the Thermomix to Varoma temperature at Speed 2 for 33 minutes. Position the Varoma on top of the Thermomix.
3. Reserve: Once cooking is complete, carefully remove the tenderloins from the Varoma and set aside.

Making the Sauce:

1. Chop the Ingredients: In the Thermomix bowl (without rinsing), add the remaining roasted piquillo peppers and onion. Chop for 5 seconds at Speed 8.
2. Cook the Sauce: Scrape down the sides and add the cream and salt. Cook for 8 minutes at 212°F (100°C) on Speed 2.

Plating:

1. Slice the Tenderloins: Carefully remove the kitchen twine from the tenderloins and slice them into medallions.
2. Serve: Arrange the sliced tenderloin on a plate and generously drizzle with the piquillo pepper sauce.

Tips for Perfection:

• Choose Quality Tenderloins: Fresh, quality meat will greatly enhance the final taste.
• Secure the Filling: Tie the tenderloins tightly to prevent them from coming apart during cooking.
• Extra Sauce: If you love sauces, double the ingredients for the sauce to ensure plenty for serving.
• Ideal Sides: Pair this dish with creamy mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
• Prep Ahead: You can prepare the stuffed tenderloins a day in advance and steam them right before serving.

Now you’re ready to bring a taste of Spain to your dining table with this easy and flavorful recipe! Enjoy your culinary adventure!
