  have only ever tried prunes with lamb before - this pork dish was fantastic and works well with lots of fresh green veg.

  TRIED THIS AS A MID WEEK MEAL AND IT WAS DELICIOUS- SO EASY. DIDN'T HAVE ANY PRUNES SO I USED DRIED APRICOTS INSTEAD WHICH WORKED OUT FINE. I MADE THIS USING JUST 2 PORK CHOPS BUT KEPT TO THE SAME AMOUNT OF SAUCE- WOULD DEFINATELY MAKE THIS AGAIN BUT WOULD DOUBLE THE SAUCE FOR 4 CHOPS.

  Excellent. Used half cider vinegar and half balsamic vinegar. Lovely served with potatoes and carrots mashed together. Very easy - will definitely try it again.

  There is one simple word for this dish - DELICIOUS. I hated prunes growing up but my husband likes them so tried this dish, I'm glad that I did and will definitely be making this one again.

  I found the sauce a little thin so thickened with cornflour. Did like it but was a little sharp for me. Im not sure if id make again. I also used apples too.

  Delicious! I read the comments before making it and as I was only making the dish for 2, I made the sauce for 4. Worked really well. Perfect amounts. Served with the suggested Boulangère potatoes and a side salad (which was nice with the sauce).
