I made these a while back and remember they were very delicious and went well with Savoy Cabbage with Worcestershire sauce and crispy roast potatoes, which is what is suggested by Jamie. With the cabbage it was as easy as using a Savoy cabbage and frying it with some Worcestershire sauce for about 8 minutes and finishing it off with a large knob of butter after it has been removed from the heat. I need to make these again.

Ingredients
4 x 250g pork chops
sea salt and freshly ground pepper
olive oil
2 good eating apples (I used Fuji) unpeeled, cored and each cut into 8 wedges
a knob of butter
a handful of fresh sage leaves
Method
Preheat oven to 200C. Lay the pork chops out on a board and using a sharp knife, cake 2cm/1 inch deep cuts all along the fatty side of them, about 1cm apart. It helps render out the fat and will also make the skin crisp. Sprinkle the chops with the salt and pepper.
Pour a glug of olive oil into a hot pan. Carefully place your chops in it and cook them for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. If you need to, open out the little pieces of fat along the edge so they don't stick together.
When the chops are nearly done, lift them out of the pan and put them on to an oiled baking tray. Add the apple wedges and a knob of butter to the pan and fry until lightly golden. Lay 4 wedges of apple on top of each pork chop. Dress your sage leaves in a little olive oil and top each apple stack with them. Put the baking tray into the oven for 4-6 minutes until everything is golden.
Serves 4
