The mild taste of pork is a great match for Chef Justine’s savory plum sauce. We ratchet up the flavor with fresh ginger and a bit of Aleppo pepper to keep the sweetness in check. Using the same pan to cook the pork, the endive, and the plums allows you to incorporate savory flavors every step of the way. Of course, it makes cleanup easier, too.
