This hearty pork and apple dish is in the table in just over half an hour and takes full advantage of seasonal organic pork and apples, as well as making a delicious family mid-week (or weekend) meal. If you cannot source pork steaks then use pork escalopes or thin cur pork chops.
Ingredients
- 6 pork steaks (or thin cut pork chops)
- salt and pepper
- a little butter for frying
- 3 eating apples (cut into thick wedges and cores removed)
- 2 to 3 tablespoons cider apple vinegar
- fresh sage leaves (finely cut)
Note
This hearty pork and apple dish is in the table in just over half an hour and takes full advantage of seasonal organic pork and apples, as well as making a delicious family mid-week (or weekend) meal. If you cannot source pork steaks then use pork escalopes or thin cur pork chops.
Directions
Step 1 | Season the pork steaks or chops with salt and pepper on both sides and gently heat the butter in a large frying pan. Add the pork steaks and apple wedges when the butter is hot and frothy and fry over a medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes until they have taken on some colour before turning the steaks and apple wedges over. |
Step 2 | Add the cider apple vinegar and chopped sage, turn the heat down and cook over a gentle heat for a further 8 to 10 minutes, or until the pork is cooked and the apples are soft but still retain their shape. |
Step 3 | Serve immediately with mashed potatoes, cabbage and braised lentils for a hearty and simple family meal. |
