Pork & Apples
2 tablespoons butter
1 pound pork loin, cut in bite-sized pieces
1 large onion, sliced
1½
cups apple cider
2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
1 cup broth (vegetable or chicken)
2 large apples (McIntosh, red delicious or your choice), cored and sliced
3 tablespoons parsley, chopped
¼
cup whole milk
Salt and pepper
Heat butter in large frying pan and brown pork, about 2 to 3 minutes each side. Transfer meat to a dish and keep warm.
Add the onion to the pan and brown slightly. Add the cider, lemon rind and broth and boil for about 5 minutes. Return the pork to the pan and cook gently on low for about 30 minutes until pork is cooked through and tender.
Stir in the apples and cook 5 more minutes. Remove the meat, onions and apples to a bowl with a slotted spoon; cover to keep warm.
Add parsley and milk to the pan and stir to thicken slightly. Season with salt and pepper. Pour over meat and serve.
Serves four to six.
