Cassaroled Pork Chops
Tender and flavorful pork chops cooked low and slow in a rich vegetable stock with aromatic thyme, spicy chillies, and a hint of tomato puree. After hours of gentle braising, the meat becomes fall-off-the-bone tender, while the carrots and onions soak up all the delicious flavors. A final touch of gravy brings it all together, creating a comforting and hearty dish perfect for sharing with loved ones. Serve with crispy roast potatoes and steamed broccoli and carrots for a complete and satisfying meal. A true family favorite for any day of the week!
