Pork and Apple Casserole

A quick and simple "casserole" that I made up as I had a couple of dessert apples looking a little too wrinkly to each fresh. Most of the preparation is done whilst the other items are cooking. Goes nicely with carrots simmered with a few carroway seeds and garlic mashed potato or sauteed potatoes.

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Serves: 2

Ingredients

• 1  lb  pork fillets or 1  lb  cubed  pork spareribs
• 2  small dessert apples (if you use a cooking apple, best to use the kind that doesn't pulp up)
• 1⁄3 pint  pork stock, made (it really does need to be pork stock cube, other flavours not subtle enough)
• 2  cloves, buds
• 4  fresh sage leaves
• 1  pinch nutmeg
• 1  pinch paprika
•  salt & pepper

Directions

1. Brown the fillets on high heat in a deep fry pan whilst slicing the onions into quarters.
2. Lower the heat and add the onions - cook until translucent.
3. Meanwhile, slice the apples into 1/4 inch wedges and add.
4. Cover with the pork stock and add the seasonings.
5. Simmer gently for 15-20 mins until most of the liquour has reduced.
