Cook the pork
- Pat the pork dry; season with the spices and S&P.
- In the reserved pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the pork* and cook, 3 to 5 min. on one side, until partially cooked.
- Flip and add 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions).
- Cook, basting the pork with the butter, 3 to 5 min., until browned and cooked through.
Finish the colcannon
- To the pot of mash, add the leeks; stir well.
Plate your dish
