Purple food

No, not jello! Mashed purple potatoes and purple cauliflower with pan fried pork tenderloin. 

I got the blue stuff at the Berkeley farmers market last week and those were the leftovers. The whole process took ten minutes:

1. Cut the potatoes in half inch cubes and separate the cauliflower into small trees
2. Put in a tupperware container and nuke for 10 minutes
3. Add a bit of butter and milk.
4. Nuke for two more minutes
5. Dump in food processor and pulse into the desired consistency
6. Add s&p

The tenderloins were even quicker. 

1. Cut in half inch slices
2. Coat thinly with flour
3. Sprinkle with s&p
4. Fry in a hot pan with butter and olive oil
5. Take out and replace with finely chopped shallot
6. Add a half cup of white wine
7. Reduce, s&p, add a bit of corn meal slurry

Combine and serve with the rest of the bottle--in this case 2006 Clos du Val Sauvignon Blanc.
