ORGANIC AUTUMN PORK FILLET MEDALLIONS
This best seller is a winner with texture, flavour and has lots of depth. Pork is traditionally smoked or boiled but we grill it South African style with a tamarind and plum sauce reduction. The fine texture of the pork fillet with the sweet yet tangy sauce is served with a standard side salad which lightens its finish. This can be accompanied with our range of vegetable starches available on our Seasons boards. A light delicate dry white wine will pair well with this dish and leave a lasting impression.
Lean, tasty and very satisfying!
Our pigs are given a nutritionally balanced diet, free of antibiotics, growth hormones, preservatives and any synthetic additives. They have access to clean water and small open shelters lined with straw provide warmth in the winter and protection from the harsh sun in summer.
A healthy environment plus good animal care means happy pigs and tasty pork!
BENEFITS OF ORGANIC MEAT
Good for the animals
Great emphasis is placed on animal welfare and allowing the animal to practice their natural instincts such as being outside, free to roam and graze.
Good for people
Organic farms prohibit the use of artificial chemicals, pesticides and fertilisers. They are not used on our pastures, nor are they used on our animals who go though life without the treatment of synthetic growth hormones, antibiotics or other drugs. Grass-fed animals are naturally leaner, higher in protein and have a healthier Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acid profile.
Good for the environment
Organic farms aim to reduce dependence on non-renewable resources. Organic production aims at all times towards sustainability whilst having best management of the environment and wildlife as a priority.
Good for the soil
Organic farms rely on a modern and scientific understanding of ecology and soil science, while also depending on traditional methods of crop rotations to ensure fertility and weed and pest control, for a better balance of grasses.
Good to taste
Organic tastes good. This is the simple message given by those who eat organic. It gives you the satisfaction of eating meat as nature intended you to!
