A simple recipe for Pork from ” Cook Simple” by Diana Henry. I eat pork very rarely, but when i do it must be organic or outdoor reared.Like Diana, I particularly recommend Gloucestershire Old Spot if you can get it. Serve this dish with rice and stir fried greens or a watercress or spinach salad.
Ingredients
- 450 g plums crimson fleshed if available
- 4 x 200g pork chops bone in and partly trimmed of fat
- 5 tbsp runny honey
- 1 tsp Chinese 5 spice powder
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 1 medium red chilli deseeded and finely chopped
- 4 garlic cloves peeled and crushed
- juice of 1/2 orange
- 1 tsp white wine vinegar
- salt and pepper
Servings:
Instructions
- Halve and stone the plums. If they are quite large cut them into quarters or sixths. Lay the chops in a shallow ovenproof dish and tuck the plums in around them so they lie in a single layer without overlapping.
- Mix all the other ingredients together and pour over the chops and plums, turning everything around to make sure all sides are coated.
- Bake in an oven preheated to 190 C, 170 Fan, Gas 5 for 45 minutes until cooked through, then serve as suggested.
