Gary Rhodes Pork Chops With Apple Tart Topping

Gary rhodes recipe

Put the cored and peeled apples in a saucepan , add half the caster sugar , the lemon juice and three tablespoons of water.

Cover with a lid and cook over a medium to low heat for 10-15 minutes until tender , stirring from time to time.

The applesauce can be very chunky or lightly whisked for a smoother finish.

Pre-heat the grill.

Brush the pork chops with a little of the melted butter , seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Put the chops on a grill tray with a rack , and grill them for 4-5 minutes on both sides.

Meanwhile peel and core the remaining apples.

Cut into thin long slices , maintaining the shape of the apple.

Spread the applesauce over the chops and arrange the apple slices on top , slightly overlapping as you would for apple tart.

Brush or drizzle the chops with the remaining melted butter , sprinkling with the remaining sugar and return under the grill.

Cook for a few minutes and the apples are nicely toasted.

Serve and enjoy.
