Today's recipe follows Jamie Oliver's cabbage recipe. I just added the pork chops. The funny thing is, my red cabbage turned out to be white!! I don't have much experience with cooking cabbage... Ah well, it was still good!
To make the pork chops, I preheated the oven to 200C, put them in a baking tray with olive oil, salt and pepper and put them in the over for just over an hour. The cabbage recipe is all from here:

Prepare bacon and thyme |
|
Place your stock, bacon and thyme in a pan on the hob, bring to the boil and then sprinkle in your finely sliced cabbage. Mix up, put the lid on and boil furiously for 5 minutes. Turn the heat down to a simmer and continue to cook until the cabbage is a pleasure to eat. Top up the stock a little bit if you feel it’s reducing too much. Add the butter, a good glug of extra virgin olive oil, season to taste and serve immediately. |

Served with rocket and tomato salad... Yum! |
Cabbage was very good though though i don't recommend it in open kitchens. :-) This wonderful feast gets 6.5 in my books!
ReplyDeleteReason: chops were too close to charcoal :-)
Thank you for the scoring lucky guinea pig! I agree with the 6.5 as I'm not the biggest fan of cabbage, however I like my meat well done.. so will have to disagree with you there :-)
