Preparation
Toast the almonds
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Heat a medium, dry, oven-safe pan on medium. Add the almonds and toast, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 min., until lightly browned and fragrant. Transfer to a bowl and reserve the pan.
Cook the pork
Pat the pork dry with paper towel and rub with a drizzle of oil; season with the spices and S&P. In the reserved pan, heat a generous drizzle of oil on medium. Add the pork* and cook, turning occasionally, 4 to 6 min., until seared. Transfer to the oven and roast, turning halfway, 8 to 12 min., until cooked through. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 min. before slicing against the grain.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, remove the woody ends of the asparagus; cut into thirds on an angle. Remove the stem ends of the wax beans; halve crosswise.
Blanch the vegetables & make the salad
Add the wax beans and asparagus to the pot of boiling water and boil, 2 to 3 min., until crisp-tender. Drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water. Once cool, drain and pat dry with paper towel. In a large bowl, combine the vinegar (start with ½), a drizzle of oil and S&P. Add the vegetables and almonds; toss well. Garnish with the cheese.
Plate your dish
Divide the salad between your plates. Top with the pork. Bon appétit!
