Pork Chops With Endive Salad And Caraway Mustard Recipes

Steps:

• I love the old French favourites, the sorts that evoke not the supercilious waiter and theatrically removed silvered dome of the big name restaurants, but rather the small town bistro, all warm wood and rough red.
• This is possibly the easiest route to a proper, filling and yet strangely delicate dinner. The pork is cooked for just enough time to take away pinkness but ensure tenderness within, and gloriously scorched without. The mustard, cider and cream add comfort and piquancy. To soak up the gorgeous juices, and to serve as a fantastically quicktime potato substitute, I serve up gnocchi alongside. You could always add a little lemony fennel, sliced thinly, or a green salad if you're in the mood.
• Cut the fat or rind off the chops, and then bash them briefly but brutally with a rolling pin between 2 pieces of cling film/plastic wrap to make them thinner.
• Heat the oil in a pan, and then cook the chops over a moderately-high heat for about 5 minutes a side. Remove them to a warmed plate.
• Pour the cider into the pan, still over the heat, to deglaze the pan. Let it bubble away for a minute or so then add the mustard and stir in the cream.
• Let the sauce continue cooking for a few minutes before pouring over each plated pork chop. If you're having gnocchi with, make sure you turn them in the pan to absorb any spare juices before adding them to your plates.

Steps:

• Season the pork chops all over with salt, pepper and the paprika; set aside. Cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until browned and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Make the salad dressing: Whisk the buttermilk, mayonnaise and 2 tablespoons each lemon juice and chives in a bowl until smooth. Season with salt and pepper; refrigerate until ready to use.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and cook until well browned and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Divide among plates and let rest.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 2 tablespoons water to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits. Simmer until reduced slightly, 15 to 30 seconds. Pour the juices evenly over the pork chops.
• Crumble the bacon into a large bowl. Add the endive, lettuce, grapes and buttermilk dressing. Toss to coat and season with salt and pepper. Add the salad to the plates and sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon chives.

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until tender, about 9 minutes, adding the asparagus during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain.
• Meanwhile, combine the breadcrumbs and 1 tablespoon tarragon in a shallow dish. Season the pork with 1/2 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of pepper and the paprika. Spread 1 tablespoon mustard on one side of the chops, then press, mustard-side down, into the crumb mixture.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the pork chops, crumb-side down, and cook until golden brown and just cooked through, about 4 minutes per side.
• Whisk the sour cream, vinegar and the remaining 1 tablespoon each mustard and tarragon in a large bowl. Add the potatoes and asparagus, the basil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; toss. Serve with the pork chops.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Let the pork sit covered at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Pat the pork dry with a paper towel. Sprinkle the pork generously with salt and pepper.
• Heat a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat with the oil, 2 turns of the pan. Place the pork in the pot and evenly brown the meat all over, about 10 to 12 minutes time in total. Remove the pork and reserve.
• Turn heat down to medium, add 3 tablespoons of the butter to the pot. When it foams, add the caraway, fennel and mustard seeds and stir for 1 minute. Add in the onions, apples, thyme, nutmeg and some salt and pepper. Cook to begin to soften, 5 minutes. Then deglaze the pot with the vinegar. Stir in the honey and beer, scraping up the bits stuck to the bottom of the pot. Add in the chicken stock and then the reserved pork, and bring to a simmer. Cover and place the pot in the oven until the meat is very tender, 2 1/2 to 3 hours, turning the meat halfway through cooking.
• Remove the pork from the pot, place on a plate and tent with foil to keep warm. When cool enough to handle, pull the meat apart with two forks. Return the meat to the braising liquid. The apples and onions will have almost completely melted into a chunky sauce. Cool and store in the refrigerator for a make-ahead meal.
• Place the potatoes and the parsnips in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, salt the water and cook until tender. Drain and return to the hot pot. Mash the potatoes with the milk and the remaining 3 tablespoons butter. Then season with salt and pepper, and add the cheese and mustard. Taste to adjust the seasonings, cool and store for a make-ahead meal.
• To serve, reheat the pork, covered over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reheat the mashed potatoes and parsnips over medium heat covered with a little stock or milk to loosen. Mashed potatoes can be kept warm for hours by placing them in a covered saucepot inside of a larger pot filled with an inch of water at a low simmer.
• Serve the pork alongside or on top of the potatoes, and sprinkle chopped parsley on everything.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Season pork with salt and pepper and cook until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer pork to a plate and let rest 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together mustard, mayonnaise, lemon zest, and caraway seeds and season with salt and pepper.
• In a large bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon oil and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Add endive and parsley and toss to combine. Serve pork with salad and mustard sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a shallow bowl or pie plate, whisk eggs with garlic powder and onion powder. Place cracker crumbs on a separate plate. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Dip pork chops into the egg, then press in the cracker crumbs to coat. Fry in the hot oil for 2 to 3 minutes per side, just until golden brown. Remove to a baking sheet.
• Bake for 45 minutes in the preheated oven, turning once. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Finely grind caraway seeds and peppercorns in an electric coffee/spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle and spread on a plate. Season chops with salt and dredge in spice mixture, coating completely.
• Heat oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté chops until golden brown and just cooked through, about 5 minutes on each side. Transfer chops to a plate. Add vinegar to skillet and deglaze over moderately high heat, scraping up brown bits, until most of vinegar is evaporated, about 20 seconds. Add juice and simmer until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Stir butter into sauce with salt to taste and pour over pork chops.

Steps:

• Sprinkle pork chops with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, brown chops in oil. Add wine and garlic, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Bring to a boil; cook for 2 minutes. , Add broth; cover and cook for 8-10 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°. Remove pork and keep warm., Bring pan juices to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced to 1/3 cup. Stir in the butter, lemon juice, mustard and Worcestershire sauce; heat through. Serve with pork.
