-------- ------------ --------------------------------
6 cloves garlic, peeled
4 teaspoons chopped peeled fresh ginger
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1/4 teaspoon curry powder
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/4 cup unsalted, dry-roasted peanuts
1 tablespoon hot water
1 (1 pound) pork tenderloin, trimmed

2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
6 tablespoons water, divided
2 cups thinly sliced red onion
3 tablespoons light coconut milk
1 tablespoon brown sugar

Place garlic cloves in food processor, and process until minced. Add ginger, cumin, curry and red pepper, and process until blended. Add peanuts and hot water, and pulse until well-blended, scraping sides of bowl occasionally.
Cut pork into 1-inch-thick slices. Place each slice between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; flatten each piece to 1/2-inch-thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Coat pork with cooking spray. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork; saute 2 minutes on each side or until browned. Place pork in a shallow bowl. Add soy sauce and 2 tablespoons water to pan, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Add soy sauce mixture to pork; keep warm.
Add onion to pan; saute 3 minutes. Add 1/4 cup peanut mixture; cook 4 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup water, coconut milk, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Return pork mixture to pan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 1 minute. Combine remaining peanut mixture with rice. Serve pork and sauce with rice.
