Pork chop with apple and mushroom sauce
Pork and apple are a classic combination, and Matthew Tomkinson makes the most of that pairing here, with a creamy apple and mushroom sauce to keep the pork chops moist and tender. Serve with mashed potatoes and perhaps some green beans for a deliciously simple supper.
