Cooking method

Step 1:
1. Start with the meat. Wrap each piece of pork in plastic wrap and pound it thin with a meat mallet.
Step 2:
1. Chop the onion finely, then scrunch it with your hands to release its juices, and add it to the meat. Let marinate for 15-20 minutes.
Step 3:
1. While the meat marinates and the oven heats to 350°F (180°C), make the sauce. Stir a spoonful of horseradish, the mustard, the finely chopped basil, and the garlic into the Greek yogurt. Mix well.
Step 4:
1. Slice the potatoes into rounds. Toss with salt, pepper, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and the herbes de Provence.
Step 5:
1. Now for the meat. Season it with salt and pepper. On a sheet of foil or parchment paper, lay the marinated onion down as a "bed" for the pork. Arrange the potatoes around the sides, then spread the sauce over the meat. Sprinkle everything with the cheese.
Step 6:
1. Bake in the oven for 50 minutes.
Step 7:
1. Add the tomatoes to the pan and return it to the oven with the convection fan on for just about 10 minutes.
Step 8:
1. And it's done! Enjoy, dear friends. Yours, Old Sam.
