Superhealthy 1 of 5-a-day, low fat
4 pork steaks around 140g/5 oz each, trimmed of excess fat
1 tbsp olive oil
2 eating apples cored and cut into eighths, red skinned ones look good
1 onion, halved and sliced
small handful sage leaves, torn, or 2 tsp dried sage
100 ml chicken or ham stock (from a cube is fine)
2 tsp wholegrain or Dijon mustard
- Rub the pork steaks with a little oil and season with pepper and salt to taste. Heat a large frying pan and fry the steaks for 2 mins on both sides until golden. Transfer to a plate. Adding a little more oil to the pan, fry the apples, onions and sage for 5 minutes or until the apples have softened.
- Pour in the stock and spoon in the mustard, then return the pork to the pan and simmer for 10 minutes until the sauce has reduced by about a third and the pork is cooked through. Serve with vegetables and mashed potatoes.
I made this tonight. It was absolutely fantastic so I thought I would share. Cooking and preparation time was around 20 minutes so its perfect for a last minute supper. The mustard and stock gave it a really rich flavour. I served it with fresh carrots and green beans so from one meal we got three of our 5-a-day.
