Ingredients

• 25g butter
• 4 lean spare rib or loin pork chops
• 1 leek, trimmed and thinly sliced
• 1 garlic clove, chopped
• 2 red dessert apples, cored and cut into wedges
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• 200ml carton half-fat crème fraîche
• 3 tbsp wholegrain mustard

Directions

1. Melt the butter in a large, deep, heavy-based frying pan over a high heat. When hot, add the pork chops and brown on both sides. Push them to one side of the pan.

2. Add the leek, garlic, apples and thyme to the other side of the pan. Cook for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn the pork chops over and cook for a further 6 minutes, until cooked through.

3. Mix the crème fraîche and mustard together and spoon into the pan, bringing everything together. Simmer for 5 minutes until reduced slightly. Season to taste and serve with root vegetable mash.
