Pork medallion with Gorgonzola and walnuts sauce, served with caramelised apples

1 kg pork fillet (whole)
Enough bacon to wrap the pork fillet
Salt & Pepper
(If you have enough time to marinate the pork, use 1 cup of dry white wine and marinate overnight)

100g gorgonzola cheese
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup crushed walnuts

4 apples
2 tbsp butter
If the apple is not ripe enough use a pinch of sugar to help the caramelization

Rub salt & pepper on the pork fillet, (take consideration that the bacon is already salty). Wrap the bacon around the fillet. In a non stick pan, sear the fillet with bacon wrapped in.
Bake the fillet for about 30 minutes in a 180C(350F).

While the pork bakes:

Making the sauce is very simple. In a pan, just melt the cheese with the cream and add the crushed walnuts. If the sauce is to thick add some whole milk or white wine.

Making the apples is easy as well. Cut the apples in wedges, and cook with butter until golden brown. Avoid mixing it. Let it cook!

Ok... So now the pork is ready and the kitchen smells amazing... Slice the pork, and serve with the sauce and the pears as a side dish.

You can also do the same using beef fillet mignon or chicken breasts!
