Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 can (15 ounces) crushed tomatoes in purée
1 tablespoon light- or dark-brown sugar
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon water
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 pork tenderloin (about 1 pound), cut into 4 pieces
1/4 cup light mayonnaise
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1/4 teaspoon celery seeds
1/4 small head green cabbage, shredded
4 whole-wheat rolls, split

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, stir together tomatoes (with purée), sugar, garlic, mustard, and 1/2 cup water; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil; add pork, cover, and simmer until tender, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer pork to a plate to cool. Continue to simmer sauce (uncovered) over medium heat until reduced by half, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon vinegar, the celery seeds, and remaining 1 tablespoon water; season with salt and pepper. Add cabbage, and toss to coat.
  • Shred pork with two forks, and return to sauce; stir in remaining teaspoon vinegar. Serve pork on rolls, topped with cabbage mixture.
