Tip the flaked almonds into a dry frying pan. Toast over a medium heat for 3-4 mins, shaking the pan, till the almonds are golden brown. Tip them into a large bowl and let them cool.

While the almonds cool, roughly chop the cherry tomatoes. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Finely chop the parsley leaves.

Scrunch the almonds a few time with your hands to break them up. Add the tomatoes, garlic and parsley to the almonds. Add ½-1 tsp dried chilli flakes (they’re spicy, so use less or more, depending on how hot you like your food). Pour in 1 tbsp red wine vinegar, ½ tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to mix. This is your Catalan salsa.

Put a large pan of water on to boil. Finely shred the cavolo nero leaves, slicing off and discarding the dry ends.

Put the frying pan back on a high heat. Rub 1 tsp olive oil and some salt and pepper into each of the pork escalopes.

When the pan is smoking hot, add the pork escalopes. Fry for 4-5 mins, then flip over and fry for 4-5 more mins till the escalopes are golden brown and cooked through. Pop the pork on a plate, loosely cover with foil and leave to rest.

The water should be boiling. Add the cavolo nero and simmer for 5 mins. Drain and tip back into the pan. Add 1 tsp olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Pop the pork escalopes onto a couple of warm plates and serve with the dressed cavolo nero and Catalan tomato salsa.
