Indian Pork Chops Recipes

Steps:

• Put the lamb and all the first marinade ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Chill for at least 2 hrs, and up to 4 hrs.
• Blend all the second marinade ingredients together. Remove the lamb from the first marinade and put it in a clean bowl. Add the second marinade and rub it into the lamb, then chill for a further 4 hrs, or overnight.
• Light a barbecue with a lid, then barbecue the chops on a high heat until cooked to medium (around 8 mins), making sure the meat isn't directly on the flame to avoid burning the spices. The key is to keep the lid on so the temperature is consistent. Or cook in the oven on a baking tray for 12 mins, and finish off under the grill for 2 mins to crisp them up. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over and green chutney on the side (see our recipe).

Steps:

• Grease 10 x 13 dish and preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Note - If using regular table salt, reduce amount by at least half.
• In a large skillet, sprinkle pork chops with spices, brown in oil and drain. Set aside.
• Mix rice and mushroom soup.
• Slice onions into 1/4" to 1/2" thick slices and slice tomatoes into 1/2" thick slices.
• Put pork chops into baking dish and spread onion slices out on top. Sprinkle a pinch of kosher salt over the onions.
• Place the tomato slices over the onions and sprinkle a pinch of kosher salt on them as well.
• Spread the rice mixture over the tomatoes. I drop by large spoonfuls and just sort of press into place so the tomatoes are not rearranged.
• Bake, uncovered. For 3/4" thick pork chops, bake for 3/4 of an hour. For 1" thick pork chops, bake for 1 hour.
• Serve with a spatula leaving the onions, tomatoes and rice in place on top of the pork chops.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the fennel seeds, cumin, oregano, coriander and celery salt.
• Place the pork chops in a wide, shallow dish. Sprinkle over the fennel seed mixture and thoroughly coat the pork chops.
• Set aside to marinate for 1-2 hours in the refrigerator.
• Heat a griddle pan until hot. Place the marinated pork chops on the griddle pan and cook for 5-10 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the chops, until cooked through.

Steps:

• Grind fennel in a spice grinder.
• Mix all ingredients in a bowl except sugar.
• Place in a cold sauté pan.

• (can be made in advance and stored, tightly covered) Dissolve salt and sugar in COLD water.

• (Or divide evenly between smaller bags) Squeeze out as much air as possible before sealing.
• Refrigerate for about an hour, turning occasionally.
• Remove chops from brine and pat dry with paper towels.
• Coat with spice mixture and massage into the meat.
• Allow to sit with rub while preparing the grill.
• Prepare Grill to very hot.
• (Gas grill pre-heat 10-15 minutes) if using a gas grill turn off one burner, if using charcoal, move coals to one side of the grill.
• Place chops on the very hot side of the grill, cover and cook until browned on each side (approx 3-4 min per side) then move over to the cooler side of the grill to continue cooking.
• Turning once until internal temperature reaches 135 degrees (approx 7-9 minutes longer) remove from heat and allow to rest at least 5 minutes.
• (Internal temp will rise to about 145 degrees) Serve.

• Rub pork chops with dry mustard and cloves, brown on both sides in skillet with 1 tsp olive oil. Arrange pork chops in pan. Place one onion slice and then one tomato slice on top of each pork chop.
• Drain mushrooms (retain liquid), set mushrooms aside. Mix soup, mushroom liquid and water. Add to rice and mix well. Cover entire dish with rice mixture, being careful not to dislodge the onions and tomatoes from the chops, and filling in between chops so that there are no gaps. Spoon sliced mushrooms over top of rice mixture.
• Bake, covered, at 350 degrees for 55-65 minutes.
• Serve with a spatula to preserve your nice chop/tomato/onion stack.
