My wife doesn’t like pork.  There, I’ve said it.  It’s a shameful thing to have to admit about ones spouse but there it is.  Likes ham, tolerates bacon… but hates pork.  My daughter likes pork to a small extent and my son merely tolerates it.  So in a house of four people we have a total of one pork lover – me.

As a result I am always trying new recipes to try and convince my family to eat swine flesh on a more regular basis.  Most make the meat reasonably OK for them but it never truly converts them.

However I have finally hit on a recipe that even my wife will happily eat!  Saucy and tasty, this will make even those whose religious faith make them eschew pork commit heresy and chow on down – Pork Cutlets with Creamy Mustard Sauce.

 

Ingredients

• 6 large Potatoes
• 2 Red Capsicum
• 1/4 cup Wholegrain Mustard
• 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
• 1/3 cup Chicken Liquid Stock
• 4 large Rindless Pork Loin Cutlets
• 1/2 cup Thickened Cream
• 1/4 cup Flat-leaf Parsley L:leaves
• Salt & Pepper

 

Method

*Preheat oven at 200 degrees

*Cut the potatoes into wedges and thickly slice the capsicum, place into a baking tray.

*In a bowl, mix up the mustard, olive oil and liquid stock.

*Pour mix over the vegetables. Place loin cutlets on top and season with salt & pepper

*Place in the oven for half an hour

*While food cooks, chop up parsley leaves and put into a bowl, add the cream

*At half hour mark take out the cutlets and wrap in tinfoil.  Pour the cream and parsley mix over the vegetables and put back in the oven for another 10 minutes.

*Put the food on a plate.  Sit back and let everyone compliment you on how good it looks.

*Devour.  Threaten others that if they don’t do the dishes this time round that you will never make such a meal again.

 

And there ya go, a pork recipe to delight the family and ensure you actually get to eat pork once in a while.
