PORK & APPLE

On warm summer days my pork and apple baguette with a glass of cold cider is heaven!

What do you need:

1 KG of pork mince
4 pieces of pork(I had shoulder steaks but chops or fillet cuts are fine)
5 apples (again its what you have Bramley, pink ladies or gala will do)
1 jar of apple sauce
50g of sugar
3 onions
2 Peppers (yellow or red they are not a bitter as green)
2 cloves of garlic (i use a teaspoon of lazy pre-chopped garlic)
3 table spoons of olive oil
Large french baguette
Cider (of your choice with loads of ice)

Try and prepair your food the night before and leave in the fridge for the next day. It helps to set the burgers and marinade the meat.

Apple Marinade

Peel core and chop 4 apples, place in a hot pan on the stove.Keep stirring until apples are soft enough to mash add the sugar and half the jar of apple sauce.(the other half is for the Pork & Onion relish )Keep stirring for 2 minutes til all mashed but not sticking to the pan. Remove and place in a ceramic bowl or tupperware til later.

Pork & Apple burgers

Finley chop 1 onion and add with 1 KG pork and half the Apple Marinade. Season with salt and pepper(general mixed spice is ok to use aswell)then mix together well. How many Burgers and or how big is up to you. Split the meat up into your portion sizes and roll in you hands into balls flatten to the size of your palm and on one side in the middle push you thumb in to the burger but not all the way through.Place the burgers on a tray , cover and place in the fridge.

Pork & Apple steaks

Place your steaks and remaining apple relish into a bowl mix up top cover all of the steaks in marinade, cover and place in the fridge.
