    Quick and easy and very flavoursome. The cider tastes fantastic with the pork. I used steamed cabbage instead of spinach because that's what I had in the fridge, and it went really well! Will be making again!

    Feeding a family of 10 can prove tricky at the best of times, but this dish went down really well with clean empty plates all round!

    Very nice and quick the only thing i would change I would reduce the amount of onions to half or use shallots for a milder flavor. Great dish

    I will be making this for my boyfriends birthday - 26th Nov - He loves Pork chops and this is such a great way to cook it. Plus he loves Spinach so i think I'm on to a winner already. Ive also been thinking of adding some mashed potato, so i think i will do what Fusion did and use Sweet potato, and a couple of corn on the cobb. Yumbo. I will be back to let you know how it went.
