GARLIC BUTTER PORK CHOPS

Geleen

( *Afrikaans vertaling onder* 👇🏼)

Pan-seared bone-in pork chops finished in a rich garlic butter pan sauce with whole garlic cloves.

Serves: 4 people
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

4 bone-in pork chops, about 250 g each and 2.5 cm thick
10 ml salt
2 ml ground black pepper
5 ml paprika
2 ml garlic powder
30 ml olive oil
30 g butter
8 to 10 whole garlic cloves, peeled
4 cloves garlic, finely minced
125 ml chicken stock or water
15 ml soy sauce
10 ml brown sugar or honey
5 ml Dijon mustard, optional
15 ml fresh parsley, chopped for serving

Method:

1. Prepare the chops. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towel. This helps them brown. Season both sides evenly with salt, black pepper, paprika and garlic powder. Let them sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.

2. Sear the chops. Heat 30 ml olive oil in a large heavy pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and sear for 4 to 5 minutes per side until golden brown and nicely caramelised. Do not overcrowd the pan, sear in batches if needed. Remove chops and set aside.

3. Cook the garlic. In the same pan, reduce heat to medium. Add the butter and the whole garlic cloves. Fry for 1 to 2 minutes until the cloves are lightly golden and soft. Add the minced garlic and fry for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

4. Make the pan sauce. Add the chicken stock, soy sauce, brown sugar and Dijon mustard if using. Stir and scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Let the sauce simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until slightly thickened.

5. Finish the chops. Return the pork chops and any juices to the pan. Spoon the sauce over the chops. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer gently for 5 to 6 minutes until chops are cooked through and tender. Internal temperature should be 63 degrees C and then rest.

6. Serve. Remove from heat, spoon the garlic butter sauce and whole garlic cloves over the chops. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve immediately with mashed potatoes, rice or vegetables.

KNOFFELBOTTER VARKTJOPS

Pan-gebraaide varktjops op die been, afgewerk in n ryk knoffelbotter pansous met heel knoffelhuisies.

Porsies: 4 persone
Bereidingstyd: 10 minute
Gaarmaaktyd: 20 minute

Bestanddele:

4 varktjops op die been, ongeveer 250 g elk en 2.5 cm dik
10 ml sout
2 ml gemaalde swartpeper
5 ml paprika
2 ml knoffelpoeier
30 ml olyfolie
30 g botter
8 tot 10 heel knoffelhuisies, geskil
4 knoffelhuisies, fyn gekap
125 ml hoenderaftreksel of water
15 ml sojasous
10 ml bruinsuiker of heuning
5 ml Dijon-mosterd, opsioneel
15 ml vars pietersielie, gekap vir bediening

Metode:

1. Berei die tjops voor. Druk die varktjops droog met kombuispapier. Dit help hulle om te verbruin. Geur beide kante eweredig met sout, swartpeper, paprika en knoffelpoeier. Laat vir 10 minute by kamertemperatuur staan.

2. Braai die tjops. Verhit 30 ml olyfolie in n groot swaar pan oor medium-hoe hitte. Voeg die varktjops by en braai vir 4 tot 5 minute per kant tot goudbruin en mooi gekaramelliseer. Moenie die pan oorlaai nie, braai in sarsies indien nodig. Haal tjops uit en sit eenkant.

3. Kook die knoffel. In dieselfde pan, verlaag hitte na medium. Voeg die botter en die heel knoffelhuisies by. Braai vir 1 tot 2 minute tot die huisies liggies goud en sag is. Voeg die fyn knoffel by en braai vir 30 sekondes tot geurig, wees versigtig om dit nie te brand nie.

4. Maak die pansous. Voeg die hoenderaftreksel, sojasous, bruinsuiker en Dijon-mosterd by indien gebruik. Roer en krap die bruin stukkies van die bodem van die pan los. Laat die sous vir 2 tot 3 minute prut tot effens verdik.

5. Rond die tjops af. Sit die varktjops en enige sappe terug in die pan. Skep die sous oor die tjops. Verlaag hitte na laag, bedek en prut liggies vir 5 tot 6 minute tot tjops deurgaar en sag is. Interne temperatuur moet 63 grade C wees en dan rus.

6. Bedien. Haal van hitte af, skep die knoffelbotter sous en heel knoffelhuisies oor die tjops. Sprinkel gekapte pietersielie oor en bedien dadelik saam met kapokaartappels, rys of groente.

STADIGE STOOF WORSIES MET UIE SOUS

Geleen

( *English translation below* 👇🏼)

Verbruinde varkworsies stadig gaar in n ryk gekaramelliseerde uiesous tot sag en sappig.

Porsies: 6 persone
Bereidingstyd: 15 minute
Gaarmaaktyd: 4 tot 6 ure stadige stoof

Bestanddele:

8 varkworsies, ongeveer 800 g dik boerewors of Engelse worsies
30 ml sonneblomolie of olyfolie
3 groot uie, dun gesny, ongeveer 450 g
3 knoffelhuisies, fyn gedruk
15 ml tamatiepasta
10 ml Worcestersous
10 ml Dijon-mosterd of Engelse mosterd
5 ml bruinsuiker
5 ml droe gemengde kruie of tiemie
2 ml gemaalde swartpeper
3 ml sout
250 ml beesaftreksel
125 ml water
30 ml mielieblom (Maizena)
30 ml koue water ekstra vir slurry
15 ml vars pietersielie, gekap vir bediening

Metode:

1. Verbruin die worsies. Verhit olie in n groot pan oor medium-hoe hitte. Voeg worsies by en verbruin vir 3 tot 4 minute per kant tot mooi goud. Jy hoef hulle nie deur te gaar nie. Haal uit en plaas in die stadige stoof bak.

2. Kook die uie. In dieselfde pan, voeg die gesnyde uie by. Indien nodig voeg n bietjie meer olie by. Braai oor medium hitte vir 8 tot 10 minute, roer gereeld, tot sag en begin karamelliseer. Voeg knoffel by en braai vir 30 sekondes.

3. Maak die sousbasis. Voeg tamatiepasta, Worcestersous, mosterd, bruinsuiker, gemengde kruie, sout en peper by. Roer vir 1 minuut. Gooi beesaftreksel en 125 ml water in, krap enige bruin stukkies van die pan los. Bring tot n ligte prut.

4. Stadig kook. Gooi die uiesous mengsel oor die worsies in die stadige stoof. Bedek met deksel en kook op laag vir 5 tot 6 ure of op hoog vir 3 tot 4 ure, tot worsies deurgaar is en uie baie sag is.

5. Verdik die sous. Meng 30 ml mielieblom met 30 ml koue water om n gladde slurry te maak. Roer in die stadige stoof in, sit deksel terug en kook op hoog vir nog 15 tot 20 minute tot sous verdik.

6. Bedien. Proe en pas geurmiddels aan. Sprinkel gekapte pietersielie oor en bedien warm oor kapokaartappels, stampmielies of rys met die ryk uiesous bo-oor geskep.

SLOW COOKER SAUSAGES WITH ONION GRAVY

Browned pork sausages slow cooked in a rich caramelised onion gravy until tender and juicy.

Serves: 6 people
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 4 to 6 hours slow cooker

Ingredients:

8 pork sausages, about 800 g thick boerewors or English bangers
30 ml sunflower oil or olive oil
3 large onions, thinly sliced, about 450 g
3 cloves garlic, crushed
15 ml tomato paste
10 ml Worcestershire sauce
10 ml Dijon mustard or English mustard
5 ml brown sugar
5 ml dried mixed herbs or thyme
2 ml ground black pepper
3 ml salt
250 ml beef stock
125 ml water
30 ml cornflour (Maizena)
30 ml cold water extra for slurry
15 ml fresh parsley, chopped for serving

Method:

1. Brown the sausages. Heat oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add sausages and brown for 3 to 4 minutes per side until nicely golden. You do not need to cook them through. Remove and place into the slow cooker bowl.

2. Cook the onions. In the same pan, add the sliced onions. If needed add a little more oil. Fry over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring often, until soft and starting to caramelise. Add garlic and fry for 30 seconds.

3. Make the gravy base. Add tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, brown sugar, mixed herbs, salt and pepper. Stir for 1 minute. Pour in beef stock and 125 ml water, scraping up any brown bits from the pan. Bring to a gentle simmer.

4. Slow cook. Pour the onion gravy mixture over the sausages in the slow cooker. Cover with lid and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until sausages are cooked through and onions are very tender.

5. Thicken the gravy. Mix 30 ml cornflour with 30 ml cold water to make a smooth slurry. Stir into the slow cooker, replace lid and cook on high for another 15 to 20 minutes until gravy thickens.

6. Serve. Taste and adjust seasoning. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve hot over mashed potatoes, samp or rice with the rich onion gravy spooned over.
