Notes

Pork fillet aka as pork tenderloin or pork steak, is the most tender cut of pork which works perfectly for this quick pan fried pork recipe.

Substitutes

A suitable substitute is either diced pork loin or shoulder with fat removed. Or simply cut pork chops into strips removing any fat or bones.
Flour can be used instead of cornflour.
