About the dish

One of Erken's finer pork dishes, listed with a French name as was the fashion in 1914. "De egte fileter" is the tenderloin that lies along the inside of the backbone; it is filled with parsley and braised tender in a creamy stock.

How to make it

  1. 1

    Clean the tenderloin

    Cut out the small, true tenderloins that lie along the inside of the backbone, and remove skin and sinews.

  2. 2

    Fill with parsley

    Cut a lengthwise slit in the middle of the tenderloin and fill it with the well-washed parsley. Tie the tenderloin together with kitchen twine.

  3. 3

    Season and brown

    Rub the tenderloin with mixed salt and pepper, and brown it in the butter in a pan.

  4. 4

    Braise tender

    Thin with boiling water, the cream, and about 2½ dl stock. Let the meat braise gently under a lid for about 30 minutes.

  5. 5

    Cook the sauce

    Take up the tenderloin and keep it warm. Continue cooking the sauce until it has thickened somewhat, season to taste, and pour it over the meat when serving.

Changes from the original

Measurements are converted to modern units (grams, dl, teaspoon). Twine is kept as kitchen twine, and "sour cream" is interpreted as mountain sour cream/cultured cream. The method is broken into steps and modernized in language.
