4 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons tamarind paste
cup water
1/2 cup dry red wine
2 teaspoons fish sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon chile powder
Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

1
Puree all ingredients except the pork and 2 Tbs of oil in food processor. Pour into a heavy plastic bag, add pork, work to coat with marinade, seal and refrigerate overnight or at least an hour.
2
Heat the 2 tablespoons oil in a skillet. Lift meat from bag and dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper. Add to skillet and brown pork on all sides.
3
Turn down heat to medium low and continue cooking, turning often, 15 minutes, or until the center of the tenderloin reads 145°. Keep the pork moist with a bit of water and scrape to avoid burning the juices. Remove pork from heat and let rest covered with aluminum foil.

5
