Pork With Green Tomato Chutney Food

PORK CHOPS WITH SWEET TOMATO CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the cumin seed, mustard seed, and cinnamon stick. Cook and stir until seeds are fragrant and begin to pop, about 1 minute. Stir in the fennel seed and then add the tomatoes. Season with cayenne pepper and salt. Pour in the water, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until the tomatoes are very soft, about 20 minutes.
• Stir the sugar in with the tomatoes and set the heat to high. Cook until sugar has dissolved, then continue to cook while stirring constantly until the mixture is glossy, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the pork chops on each side until browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from the heat and allow to rest for a few minutes.
• Serve pork chops with about a tablespoon of chutney spooned over the top.

PORK CHOPS WITH TOMATO CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Make chutney: Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add onion and mustard seeds; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is golden, about 8 minutes.
• Add tomatoes, breaking them up with a spoon. Stir in vinegar, raisins, sugar, and 1/4 cup water; season with salt and pepper. (Yellow raisins, which are plumper and sweeter than dark ones, are often used to make chutneys.) Bring to a boil, and reduce heat; simmer, stirring occasionally, until mixture has thickened, about 15 minutes. Set chutney aside.
• Meanwhile, generously season both sides of pork chops with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat. Cook pork (in two batches, if necessary) until browned and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve with chutney.

IT'S JUST PORK...AND CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, combine the cinnamon, chili, cumin, fennel, paprika, pepper and salt.
• Rub each pork loin generously with the seasoning blend. Let the pork sit 20 to 30 minutes at room temperature.
• Preheat a large, oven-proof saute pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Place the pork tenderloins in the pan and sear the pork on all sides until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Place the seared pork into the oven and cook until an instant-read thermometer reads 155 to 160 degrees F, 20 to 30 minutes. Remove the tenderloins from the oven, place them on a plate or cutting board, tent with foil and allow the meat to rest 10 minutes.
• Cut the pork into 1-inch thick slices and spoon liberal amounts of Cranberry Chutney over the pork and enjoy!
• In a medium saucepot, add the onions, garlic, 1/2 to 3/4 cup water, vinegar, sugar, ginger, allspice, fennel, chile and cloves. Bring the mixture to a boil.
• Add the cranberries to the pot and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook the mixture until the cranberries have reconstituted and start softening and breaking down. If too much liquid evaporates, just add more water and keep cooking until you achieve the desired consistency. The chutney should be on the firmer/chunkier side of a jelly. Once the chutney is cooked, season with salt and pepper.

GREEN TOMATO CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Slice the tomatoes (you can skin them if you want, but it's not necessary). Finely chop the onions. Layer both in a large bowl with the salt. Leave overnight.
• The next day, chop the sultanas using a large, sharp knife, then peel, core and chop the apples. Put the sugar and vinegar into a large pan and bring to the boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Add the sultanas and apples and simmer for 10 mins. Strain the tomatoes and onions in a colander (but don't rinse), then tip into the pan and return to the boil.

• Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until the tomatoes a tender.
• Time will vary due to the firmness of the tomatoes.
• Should take about 1 hour.
