Instructions:

For the gnocchi, press the potatoes. Mix with flour, semolina, melted butter, tomato paste, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Chop the dried tomatoes very finely and stir in with the egg. Knead into a smooth dough. Cover and let rest for about 20 minutes.

Then divide into 4 pieces on a floured work surface. Roll out each piece of dough with a little flour to about the thickness of a thumb, using the back of a knife or a pastry card to cut off pieces (gnocchi) about the thickness of a finger. Dredge in a little flour and boil once in salted boiling water. Strain.

Toss in a pan with a little olive oil and the chopped basil.

Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 75 °C. Rinse the peppercorns well under cold water.

For the medallions, remove the silver skin and fat from the pork tenderloin. Cut into slices about 4 cm thick. Stand them up and flatten them a bit. Season with salt and pepper.

Put some olive oil in a heated pan, flavor with the garlic, thyme and rosemary and fry the medallions in it over medium heat for about 2 minutes on both sides. Let meat rest on a plate in the oven.

In the pan, make the sauce. Remove spices, deglaze with brandy and pour in soup. Let it boil down until there is almost nothing left, then pour the cream and add the pepper. Let it boil down again for about 2-3 minutes until a creamy sauce is formed. Take the meat out of the oven, add the meat juices to the sauce.
