Preparation

  1. Place oil in a large, deep skillet on medium-high heat. A minute later, add pork, and cook, undisturbed, until brown on one side, about 5 to 10 minutes. Turn and brown another side. Add garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, for a minute or two. Add 1 1/2 cups wine, then coriander.
  2. Turn heat to low, and cover. Simmer gently for 45 minutes to an hour, until pork is tender. Remove coriander. Stir in remaining wine; cook 2 or 3 minutes. Stir in butter.
  3. Add lemon juice to taste. Stir in half the cilantro, then serve, garnished with remaining cilantro.
