Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Place the water and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, add the rice and let the water return to the boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 10 minutes. Stir in apricots and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

  2. Step 2

    While the rice is standing, slice the tenderloin into 8 equal pieces, using the thin end as 1 whole piece. Flatten each piece to almost ¼ inch. Rub the curry powder into the pork on both sides.

  3. Step 3

    Heat a large, heavy-bottomed nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Add the pork and cook until the center is only slightly pink, about 1 ½ minutes per side.

  4. Step 4

    Mound the rice in the center of a platter and sprinkle with the chopped pistachios. Arrange the pork in a circle around the rice. Serve immediately.
