Method

  • step 1

    Cut the pork into 3cm thick slices. Heat the oil in a large, non-stick frying pan, add the pork, then fry on both sides until lightly browned, about 5 mins in total. Lift out of pan and set aside. Add apples to the pan, then cook for 3-4 mins until starting to soften.

  • step 2

    Stir in the garlic, maple syrup, vinegar and 3 tbsp water, bring to the boil, then return the meat to the pan along with any juices. Simmer for a few more mins, stirring until the pork is cooked through and the sauce is thick and sticky. Stir in the wholegrain mustard, then serve with plain or Crispy onion rice (recipe below).

RECIPE TIPS
CRISPY ONION RICE

Put 200g basmati rice in a pan and cover with cold water. Stir in 2 tsp stock powder or 1 crumbled stock cube. Bring to the boil, stir, then simmer for 10 mins until the water has almost evaporated. Put a lid on, leave for 5 mins, then fluff up with a fork. Meanwhile, heat 2 tbsp sunflower oil in a frying pan, add 1 thinly sliced onion, then fry until browned and crisp. Fold into the rice and serve.

SAVE SOME MONEY

For a great-value meal, replace the pork with a 400g pack pork sausages, sliced into chunks. Cook for 10-12 mins before adding the apple slices.

Good but not fantastic. I added some stock with the maple syrup. This meant that the sauce wasn't too sickly sweet and the syrup/vinegar didn't burn on the bottom of the pan. Also I found the original recipe rather dry.

A really lovely dish, although like others it could do with having more sauce made up. The pork is delicious and goes very well with the sticky apples. I served it with crushed new potatoes, a firm favourite from now on!

OMG! This is tasty! I served it with thin noodles, went perfectly well, my boyfriend has even bookmarked it for me, so I'm pretty sure we will cook it again. Super quick, took only 20 minutes. The only thing that I improved a wee bit was the amount of sauce. I feel it needs a bit mroe sauce.…
