1. Rinse buckwheat. Bring water or stock to a boil with a pinch of salt, add buckwheat, cook on low with a lid until tender and dry (about 15 minutes). Rest 5 minutes.
2. Season pork medallions with salt and black pepper.
3. Heat oil in a wide pan on high. Sear pork 2 minutes per side until lightly browned and just cooked. Remove to a warm plate.
4. In the same pan, reduce to medium, add butter and onion, cook until soft. Add mushrooms and cook until golden and most liquid evaporates.
5. Stir in sour cream (if using), a splash of water if needed, and season. Return pork to the pan for 1 minute to warm through.
6. Fluff buckwheat with a fork.

How to make

Serving tip

Serve pork and mushroom sauce over warm buckwheat. Sprinkle with chopped parsley.

Alenka's note

“Lean pork and nutty buckwheat — comfort that does not weigh you down.”
