Preparation
Step 1
To make sauce:
Melt butter over medium heat in a small saucepan.
Cook onion, stirring, for about 5 minutes or until soft and starting to brown.
Sprinkle with flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Whisk in stock, then mustard, syrup and soy sauce and increase heat to medium-high.
Bring to boil. Boil gently, whisking, for about 5 minutes or until slightly thickened. Check seasoning. (Sauce can be cooled, covered and refrigerated for up to 2 days).
Pork:
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Combine bread crumbs, ginger, salt and pepper in a shallow dish.
Separately, combine mustard and syrup and brush all over pork tenderloins. Tuck thin end of pork under to make even thickness and roll each tenderloin in crumb mixture, pressing to make crumbs stick.
Space tenderloins apart on foil-lined rimmed baking sheet or shallow roasting pan, placing tucked end underneath.
Roast for about 20 to 25 minutes or until internal temperature is 160°F (70°C) on an instant-read thermometer and pork has a tinge of pink in the centre.
Meanwhile, reheat sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat, if necessary. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer pork to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice pork diagonally into 1/2-inch-(1-cm) thick slices. Place pork on warmed serving plate and serve sauce on the side.
