Pork Chop For Dinner

I have been abandoning my blog for quite a while now. Been busy constructing an essay for a job application. All I have to do is write a one page essay on what motivate me to join the program and wow..that took me a week to construct and reconstruct. Even now I haven't come out with a concrete essay. Luckily I have until February to submit. 

Anyway, I had a request yesterday to cook pork chop for dinner so I thought of sharing my very own recipe of pork chop. Now, this is not a healthy recipe yeah..that I have to let you know. That is also the reason why I only cook this few times a year. But I can assure you that it taste good! Unhealthy food always taste good don't it? Hehhe..ok for those who can't eat pork, you can simply replace it with other kind of meat. 

So, for this you need..obviously pork meat, butter, milk/cream, flour, paprika, salt & some vegetables (button mushroom, carrot & capsicum).

First, mix some flour with salt and paprika (this is an option yeah. You can replace it with other herb/spices. I like to use either chillies flake or paprika). Mix in a plate.

 And coated the meat one by one with the flour mixture.

So, roughly all your meat will be coated with the flour mixture and it look like this..

You see the orange/brownish color, that why I like to use paprika. Then you need to melt a few tbsp butter on a hot pan.

I told you that this is not a healthy dish. Heheh...the buttery taste is very yummyy! Then pan fry the coated meat in the melted butter. 

Not sampai masak ya, just bagi dia brownish color..make sure you pan fry both side..

Lepas tu, place all the meat dalam bekas untuk masukkan dalam oven. 

When you do the pan frying, you can prepare the vegetables and here I used button mushroom, capsicum and carrot. You can also add potatoes or tomatoes. Really...any vegetable will do but please jangan la letak bayam ke..kangkung ke..tu melampau la kan..

Slice the button mushroom. Please don't use the canned button mushroom. It has to be the 'real' one. 

Then continue slicing the capsicum & carrot. Bila smua dah ready, again, take few tbsp butter & melted it on a hot pan. Recycle jer pan tadi..hehehe

Bila butter dah melted, add the sliced button mushroom. Don't be alarm. It may look like too many but once the water is squeeze out from it, you be surprised how little mushroom you have. 

You will end up with a lot of water in the pan so take out some of the water and then add the rest of the sliced vegetable. 

Then when all is mixed, add some milk or cream. Not too much. Just to give it a little watery. See..sikit jer air dia..

Then add flour..

Continue on stirring until the gravy is thicken. If tak cukup pekat, add sikit flour. Bila dah pekat, pour all the vegetable on top of the meat tadi..

The water from the vegetable will make sure the meat won't get very dry when it is cooking inside the oven. The dish will have a little bit of gravy too. It is not suppose to be dry. Kalau nak avoid sayur & meat very dry cepat, cover dish dgn aluminum sheet. Cook for 30-45 min in a 190C.

Tada..dah masak. Ni baru kluar oven. X nampak the meat pasal kat bawah tu. You can serve the meat with pasta..boil potato or simply nasi (typical Asian nyer style la kan). Hehehe..

Try la if ada masa. Pasti sedap. Tapi jangan masak slalu tau. If you gain weight jangan salahkan saya ok. Hehehhe...
