In response to the plea for pork chop recipes - we too have played that
"let's buy loads of 'em" game. Here's one we never tire of..
2 thick pork chops
1 apple (a floury type or cooking apple is good)
2 cups cider
1 cup sliced mushrooms
good pinch of mixed herbs
pinch of rosemary
2 cloves garlic
salt & pepper
Sear the chops on both sides in a deep frypan. Peel, core and slice the
apple. Crush one clove of garlic and smear it on the chops. When they
start to put out some juice, add the mushrooms and the other clove of
garlic (crushed) and fry(add a small knob of butter if you like). Lay
the apple slices on the chops. When mushrooms are done, you can either
take them out and put them on one side, or leave them in - we generally
leave them. Add the cider and turn the heat way down. Leave to bubble for
about 10 mins. Turn the chops, mixing the apple into the sauce, and let
bubble another 5 mins. Remove the chops from the pan and set aside. Now
turn the heat up again, and deglaze the pan if it needs it. Add the
mushrooms at this point if you took them out. We generally thicken the
sauce using gravy powder but a rounded tsp of cornflour in 1/2 cup cold
water is good too. When sauce is desired thickness, replace the chops,
turning to coat in sauce, and serve. It's very good with mashed potato!
