Pork Chops Recipe Special
It
is easy to make and is a dish that is good enough for a special occasion
because of the beautiful creamy sauce that accompanies it.
Pork
is widely used all over France and is made into endless pork sausages and other meats
which are all so good.
But for this recipe we are using small but good quality pork
chops which you can purchase from your butcher or supermarket as they will give good results.
The
sauce is made from fresh tomatoes, wine or stock such as chicken or vegetable
and a little tomato paste and Dijon mustard.
Of course, the final ingredient is
cream so if you are on a diet, choose this recipe for a special occasion or
just have a small amount – if you can – I tend to pour too much over the chops
as it is so delicious.

Melt the butter and oil in a heavy-bottomed frying pan until hot.
Place chops into the hot oil, season with salt and pepper, and reduce heat a little so they do not burn.
Cook until brown (a few minutes) and turn them.
Cook again until brown then remove from pan and keep warm.
Pour out fat from pan.
Add the wine or stock along with the thyme and bring to the boil.
Cook until it has almost evaporated.
Add the chopped tomato paste and the cream, stirring continuously.
Now place the pork chops back into the pan and continue to cook for a further five minutes over low heat.
Finally add the mustard, herbs, and chopped tomatoes stirring to incorporate them into the sauce.
