2 Pork Loin Steaks
2 Shallots
1 Sprig of Thyme
Glass of Cider
1 Cooking Apple
Pan fry the Pork Steaks
Place in oven for 20-25 minutes, then take them out and let them rest for 5 minutes.
In a pan, add and fry in olive oil the diced shallots, and let them sweat for 1-2 minutes.
Add the cider and thyme.
Reduce down to a syrup.
Pour over the Chops
Serve with Potato and Parsnip Mash.
Well this one couldn’t be easier. As usual, you can make it as complicated as you like, so here is a basic recipe with some suggestions.
1 pork chop per person, not too lean (the chops, not the person).
Sage – just beginning to grow again now, so fresh if you have it in your garden is best. Sage has quite a pungent taste, so two decent-sized leaves per chop should be enough.
Cider and cider (or balsamic) vinegar.
Cream or crème fraiche.
I cooked this for my wife last week – it took me twenty minutes from start to finish. She liked it so much she finished off the washing-up!
Serves 2 people
