This recipe is very simple and very traditional in terms of British cuisine. Using the barbecue to allow the apples to caramelise in their own sugar couldn't be easier.

Ingredients
- 2 Knorr Chicken or Ham Stock Cubes
- 2tbsps olive oil
- 6 pork chops
- 6 Coxs apples
- Fresh sage
- Rock salt
Method
- Place the Knorr Chicken or Ham Stock Cubes and olive oil in a bowl and mix to a paste. This is the seasoning paste.
- Take the pork chops and remove the fat because there is no way it’ll cook in the time it takes to cook the meat.
- Rub the paste into each of the chops. The seasoning will slowly penetrate through the meat.
- Chop each of the apples into 4 thick rounds, but no need to peel or core. Just eat around it.
- Place a little oil on a baking sheet and place the apples on it to slowly caramelise on the grill. Add some fresh sage leaves, as much as you like.
- Add the chops to the grill for about 5–6 minutes (depending on thickness).
- Turn the apples and sage over regularly, check the meat as well and turn over once. By the time the pork is cooked, the apple is cooked.
- Remove the sage from the apple. Serve the pork with the apple, garnish with some of the sage and drizzle with a little olive oil and rock salt for a Mediterranean touch.
- This is the perfect recipe to use up any apples that have gone a bit wrinkly or bruised – simply peel them and cut out the bruise. For lots more hints and tips to help you make the most of your food, visit www.lovefoodhatewaste.com
