Ingredients

  • 25 ml oil
  • 1 kg pork chop
  • salt and black pepper
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 50 ml flour
  • 250 ml chicken stock
  • 75 ml white wine
  • 14 fresh sage leaves or 5 ml dried sage
  • 5 ml mustard
  • 10 ml capers, rinsed and chopped
  • 2 ml salt
  • 2 ml sugar
  • 50 ml sour cream

Method

  • Preheat oven to 160°C.
  • Heat oil and brown chops very lightly on both sides.
  • Place chops close together in a casserole dish in a single layer and season with salt and pepper.
  • Saute onion and garlic in pan drippings.
  • When softened, add flour and stir for 1 minute.
  • Slowly stir in stock and wine and allow to thicken (this will be very thick, but the juice from the meat will thin it down).
  • Add sage, mustard, capers, salt, sugar and sour cream.
  • Mix well and spread over the chops.
  • Cover and bake for 1 1/2 hours until meat is tender.
  • Check now and then and add a little water, if necessary.
