Method

  1. Heat a non-stick frying pan until really hot. Rub a little oil on the chops and season well, then cook for approximately 3 minutes per side or until they are browned and cooked through. Push the fat up against the edge of the pan so it gets crisp. Take out the chops and keep warm under foil.
  2. Add the cider to the pan and reduce by half, then add the mustard and cream and simmer for a few minutes. Serve the chops with the watercress and potatoes.

    I tried it this evening and was worth the wait, I would be tempted to add 100ml more of cider. Think this would cut through the taste of the mustard a little :0)

    I use three mustards - english, wholegrain and dijon. Usually serve with wilted spinach and mash - yum!
