Hands-On Time: 10  minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Serves: 2

Ingredients:

  • 1  tbsp  butter
  • 1  tbsp  rapeseed  oil,  plus  extra  for  brushing
  • 2  boneless  pork  loin chops,  bashed  to  a  5mm  thickness
  • 1  small  red  onion
  • 1  tbsp  apple  cider  vinegar
  • 4  tbsp  maple  syrup

  • 200g tenderstem broccoli
  • Sea  salt  and  freshly ground black  pepper

Method

  1. Start by placing your pan over a very high heat, once it is hot you’re ready to start. 
  2. Put the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Pat the pork chops dry with a little kitchen paper and season with salt and pepper.  Add the chops to the pan and brown on both sides. While the pork chops are browning slice the onion. 
  3. When the meat has a good colour, add the onion and tender-stem and fry for about  30  seconds. Then pour in the vinegar, maple syrup, soy sauce, apple juice and mustard and heat until the sauce is bubbling. Baste the meat well as you go. 
  4. Reduce  the  sauce  over  a  medium  heat  for  a  minute or two  until  slightly thickened 
  5. Toss the pork in the sauce with half the coriander, scatter with the remaining coriander leaves and serve.
