How to Speed Up Dinner Prep

Method

  • 1. In a small bowl, mix fennel, salt, chilli and half of the oil. Rub over the chops.

  • 2. To make the parsnip mash, cook parsnips in a medium saucepan of boiling salted water for 10 minutes. Drain, then mash with cream and butter. Season to taste.

  • 3. Meanwhile, cook chops in a large frying pan on high, for 4-5 minutes each side until cooked through. Transfer to a plate, then cover to keep warm.

  • 4. In the same pan, heat the rest of the oil over a medium heat. Cook apples and cabbage for 4-5 minutes until cabbage has wilted. Season to taste.

  • 5. Serve pork with mash, cabbage and lemon wedges on the side.

  • Tip: To make this dairy free, replace butter with olive oil and use dairy-free milk instead of cream.
