    Very tasty and easy to make. A good mid-week meal especially if you're having people over.

    Where did I go wrong?! The flavour of the vinegar just over-powered what would otherwise have been a nice dish. Disappointed but would recommend to others to just leave out the red wine vinegar

    Is it me or the recipe? I followed it accurately but I also get a vinegar sauce! the onions soak it up and give you a blast of it - will also try without the vinegar - maybe.

    I make this with cider or apple juice rather than the wine and vinegar - it's great.

    Would have been a really nice dinner, except like others the red wine vinegar spoilt it and i even halved the amount!... maybe do it again but without the vinegar.

    Yes, I echo previous comments re over-powering vinegar taste. Should the measurements for vinegar be in teaspoons, not tablespoons,perhaps?

    Made this last night and really enjoyed although I agree with other people's comments about the vinegar - totally unnecessary - also would use loin chops next time for easier eating. Quick and easy though..will definitely make again

    This was really nice-even my picky 14 year old ate evry last scrap. Mindful of the comments about the vinegar, I added a small amount (about a dessertspoon) and it was fine. Any more than that, I agree would have probably been too much.

    i left out the red wine vinegar as suggested by others and still found it to tarty, i could taste it all night, so could my wife, i think i will try it with chicken stock instead of any wine and use dijon mustard in place of wholegrain , i like experimenting ,,

    Well we liked it - with the suggested amount of vinegar and wine. Must admit though, I really did bubble it well for the vinegar and wine stage, to ensure that it was really reduced. Really liked the piquancy :o)
