👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1--- To marinade ---
  2. 2Mix the oil with the garlic and ginger and distribute around the tenderloin. Let marinade overnight covered.
  3. 3On the next day remove the garlic and ginger and season with salt and pepper.
  4. 4--- For the spice mix ---
  5. 5Mix the ingredients in a bowl and rub it into the tenderloin so the spices can penetrate it.
  6. 6Heat a bit of vegetable oil in a pan on high heat. Seal the tenderloin on all sides until really golden. You'll see smoke coming out and that's normal because of the sugar caramelizing.
  7. 7Take to a preheated oven at 180C for 15-20min or until the temperature at the center reaches 63C. We don't want to overcook it or it will dry out.
  8. 8Take off the oven and let it rest covered in tin foil for 10min so the juices don't come rushing out when we slice it.
  9. 9--- For the sauce ---
  10. 10Put everything in a pot and let it boil until it thickens. Remove the garlic.
  11. 11--- For the salad ---
  12. 12Whisk together the dressing ingredients and marinade the cucumbers and radishes in the dressing separately for about 10min.
  13. 13Garnish with black sesame seeds.
  14. 14--- Assembly ---
  15. 15Put the salad on top of the base of the bread followed by the tenderloin and its sauce.
  16. 16Lay the avocado on top and season with salt and pepper.
  17. 17Mix the mayonnaise with sriracha to taste and drizzle it on the avocado. Cover with the lid of the bread.
