2 tbsp	rapeseed oil
1 tbsp	honey
200 ml	red wine
100 ml	demi-glace
1 piece(s)	gingerbread, finely ground

50 ml	single cream
50 ml	milk
400 g	Brussels sprouts, trimmed
1 tbsp	butter

Instructions

Cook the sweet potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and allow to cool a bit. Heat the cream and the milk. Add to the potatoes and mash. Season to taste with salt and nutmeg.

In an ovenproof pan heat rapeseed oil and fry the pork medallions until golden on both sides. Transfer the pan into the preheated oven at 160°C, fan on, and leave there for 12 minutes. Take out of the pan, season with salt and pepper and keep warm.

Deglaze the juices in the pan with the red wine and boil down a bit. Stir in the honey. Add the demi-glace and the gingerbread and cook stirring until smooth and thickened. Season to taste.

Blanche the Brussels sprouts for 3-4 minutes, then drain. In a saucepan, heat the butter. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook until done, but still a bit firm to the bite. Season with salt and nutmeg. Add the breadcrumbs and stir-fry until golden and crispy.

To serve:
Spoon some of the mashed sweet potatoes in the middle of flat plates. Arrange the medallions and the Brussels sprouts next to the mash. Serve drizzled with the sauce.
