Food good..

Alright, you guessed another one of my passions is good food. I like preparing food, unfortunately I don't get around doing it as much as I'd like to - probably because I'm a lazy bastard.. Oh well..
Anyways, my wife recently purchased a nice little book with a few simply dishes in, that I will try and experiment with.. I'll post the recipes and conclusions on this blog.

Pork Chops Valenciana:
A couple of not too thick pork chops
175g Orange marmalade
2 Tablespoons chili sauce
1 Tablespoon cider vinegar
1 Teaspoon fresh grated ginger
1 Teaspoon ground cumin
2 Green Onions

Heat some oil on large pan, and fry the pork chops until brown on each side and well cooked inside. Meanwhile, add orange marmalade, chili sauce, vinegar, ginger and cumin into a sauce pan/pot and cook while stirring until the sauce thickens a little bit. Add the thinly sliced green onions to the sauce, and serve the pork chops covered with the sauce.

Can be served with any boiled/steamed vegetable, fx. Potatoes or asparagus.

The whole thing shouldn't take more than 20 minutes.

I prepared the dish last night, and the sweet'n'sour sauce really went very well with the pork chops - it is definitely not the last time I make this.. ;)
