Pork Tenderloin à La Normande image

This is a recipe you will make for a family meal or for guests; so easy, so good. À la normande usually refers to a dish where you add a sauce containing apples or cider or Calvados as well as cream. I chose to make this without any alcohol and the flavour is still wonderful. You can prepare this recipe in the morning; refrigerate it and finish cooking it at dinner time.
