Smoked Pork Chops in Brandy Sauce

Smoked Pork Chops

Smoked pork chops should be easily available in most supermarkets - they certainly are in the Central American countries that we have visited so far, in particular Cuba and Panama.

This recipe has only a few ingredients, doesn't take long to cook, and tastes great! You have to use smoked pork, though - ordinary pork does not give the same flavour. 

 

SERVES 2

Preparation Time:  5 Minutes
Cooking Time:  15 minutes

2 smoked pork chops 1 tblsp brandy
1 medium onion, sliced 1 cup heavy cream
1/2 chicken stock cube 1 teasp sugar

Heat a little oil in a large frying pan and fry the onions until soft. Add the pork chops and cook until browned on both sides. Crumble in the stock cube, add the brandy and cream and cook gently for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally - don't let the cream curdle. Add a little water if the mixture becomes too dry.

Serve with potatoes and a green vegetable.
