Pork Chop with Caramelised Apple

Delicious dinner for two! Juicy pork chops from our excellent local butcher (their meat is all local, too), simply seasoned with black pepper and lots of dried sage, dry-fried in a non-stick pan; slices of eating apples, added to the pan with a knob of butter (while chops were finishing off in the oven) and caramelised. Made up some gravy granules (chicken variety), drained off the fat from the pan and put chops back in with apples and gravy. Served with roasted swede chunks (unusual flavour but very nice!), steamed carrots and romanesco cauliflower, plus some braised red cabbage re-heated from the freezer ... very colourful, tasty and substantial meal.
