Sage And Apple Roasted Pork Chops<\/p>\nSage And Apple Roasted Pork Chops<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Two big pork chops (the sort only a good local butcher sells, bone-in if poss)<\/p>\n
3-4 apples (nothing fancy whichever variety you have in the house will do)<\/p>\n
1\/2 can of apple cider<\/p>\n
Generous handful of shallots<\/p>\n
Couple sprigs of fresh thyme<\/p>\n
Handful of sage leaves<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Olive oil<\/p>\n
Salt + Pepper<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Pre-heat your oven to 180C\/350F. Slice up your shallots, core and chop your apples into segments (cut into quarters, then half those quarters). Season your pork chops generously with salt and pepper. When you\u2019re ready, pop your frying pan on a medium heat with a good drizzle of olive oil. Throw in the thyme to flavour it. When it\u2019s nice and hot, fry your chops so that they brown on each side.\u00a0 Then rest them on their crackling until it starts to crisp.\u00a0 Throw in your shallots and fry until soft and just starting to brown.\u00a0 Remove your chops and place on one side. Throw in your apples and toss in the herby sauce until glistening. Add a 3-4 sage leaves. Then nestle your chops back into position, surrounded by apples. Pour in about half a can of cider, enough so that the chops are swimming in it but not drowned in it.\u00a0 Put the whole thing in the oven (minus the pan handle in my case!) for about 30 mins, keeping an eye on it \u2013 when the meat is golden brown and the apples soft and gooey \u2013 it\u2019s done!\u00a0 Serve in the pan.\u00a0 You could add a side of mash, fresh greens, roasted veg, buttered peas, a crisp salad, or just a crunchy baguette. A simple but really quite spectacular supper<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
