Balsamic vinegar and brown sugar ice cream
Combine icing ingredients in a small saucepan (brown sugar, cornstarch, aged balsamic vinegar, water and soy sauce).
Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to bubble and thickens. Reduce heat to low to keep warm.
When the pork tenderloin is cooked, preheat the oven grill (broil).
Generously brush the fillet with ice cream (top and side) and put in the oven. Checking often (depending on the oven, it can go quite quickly), let the sauce caramelize on the fillet under the grill until it is bubbling and set on the meat.
Brush the fillet a second time with the sauce and repeat the cooking process.
Serve the tenderloin piping hot, with the rest of the ice cream on the side, if desired.
