- To make the chilli jam, peel and roughly chop the onion, garlic and ginger. Remove the stalks from the chillies and roughly chop. Place in a small food bowl and pulse until all ingredients are finely chopped.

- Add the rice wine vinegar, ground coriander, fish sauce and brown sugar, mix well to combine. Bring to the boil then reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer for 6 minutes until the sauce has thickened. Stir while simmering. Allow to cool slightly before pouring into a sterilised jar.
- Place the pork loin steaks in a large bowl, add the chilli jam and soy, mix well to coat the steaks and set aside to marinate for half an hour.
- To prepare the beans, wash well and cut into halves or thirds, in a large frypan over a medium heat add the vegetable oil and sesame oil, add the garlic and cook until it starts to caramelise, then add the beans and toss well for a minute or two, season with sea salt. Pour in the water and place a lid on, allow the beans to cook for 3-4 minutes or until tender.
- To cook the pork loin steaks, heat a large, heavy based frypan over a medium heat. Add a little of the vegetable oil to the pan, cook the steaks in the pan for six minutes on one side without turning. Turn once and cook for a further two minutes on the other side.
