Ingredients

  • 2 apples Red Delicious variety, cored and sliced into quarters
  • 1 red onion peeled and quartered
  • 1 fennel bulb washed and sliced into even chunks
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • ¼ cup dry white wine optional
  • 600 g pork cutlets bone in and trimmed of excess fat
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 200 deg C Season the pork cutlets and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the apples, fennel and onions. Season with a little salt and pepper and toss with the olive oil, vinegar and wine (if using).
  • Place this vegetables into a baking dish and cook in the oven. (To achieve a nice caramelised texture mine took 35 mins).
  • At the 20 min mark, heat your pan on a high heat. Add a little olive oil and cook the pork cutlets-2 mins on each side.
  • Once seared, place them on top of your veggies (that are cooking in the oven) and finish them off for the last 10 mins.
  • Allow them to rest for 5 mins before serving with the veggies.

Notes

  1. Be wary of the size and thickness of your cutlets. Mine were quite thick so I cooked them for a longer time in the oven. Adjust accordingly for the cutlets you use.
  2. A little Dijon mustard on the side when serving makes this even more magical.
