Ingredients:

  1. 1-1/2 lbs. pork tenderloin
  2. 1/2 cup dry sherry
  3. 1/3 cup soy sauce
  4. 1/2 cup honey
  5. 1/2 cup sesame seeds
  6. Spinach leaves
  7. Dipping Sauce:
  8. 1 Tablespoon soy sauce
  9. 1 Tablespoon dry sherry
  10. 1 clove garlic, crushed
  11. 1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
  12. 1 green onion, finely chopped
Directions:

In a dish large enough to hold the tenderloin, combine the sherry and soy sauce. Add the pork. Allow to marinate 1 to 2 hours, turning several times.

Remove the tenderloin. Spread honey on a plate. Roll the pork in honey, then in sesame seeds. Place the tenderloin in a roast pan.

Roast at 350 degrees F. for 20 minutes, or until meat thermometer registers 155 degrees F. Let stand 5 minutes, then slice thinly on the diagonal.

Combine all remaining ingredients for dipping sauce. Place in a bowl in the center of a serving platter. Surround the bowl with the spinach leaves. Arrange pork slices on top.
