Pork Tenderloin with Low Fat Lime Cream Sauce

Submitted by Normaone

"The original recipe uses 1 cup of whole cream instead of the non-fat sour cream. Therefore it is alot more caloric but the flavor is fabulous. And you would have to cook the sauce a bit more after the cream is added. This recipe originated in Thailand."

This was absolutely lovely - I confess I had to change some of the ingredients only because I am pregnant though :) I substituted the wine for a tablespoon of white vinegar and a cup of broth, it seemed to do the same thing, give it that nice acidic tang. My husband really enjoyed this dish and we will be making it again, thanks.
