What to do:
\n<\/b>Heat oven to 200 degrees Celsius. In a food processor, pulse the bread and two tablespoons of the oil to form coarse crumbs.
\nSpread the crumbs on a baking sheet and bake until crisp, five to six minutes. Toss with the spring onions, half a teaspoon salt and pepper.
\nMeanwhile, heat one tablespoon of the oil in a large ovenproof pan over medium-high heat. Season the pork with half a teaspoon each salt and pepper and brown, two to three minutes per side.
\nTransfer to oven and roast until cooked through, five to seven minutes.
\nToss the spinach, beans, vinegar, oregano, remaining tablespoon oil, half a teaspoon salt and pepper.
\nTop the pork with the bread-crumb mixture. Serve with the salad.
