Thanks to a Mrs. Keiller of Dundee, who bought a load of surplus oranges and made them into marmalade, Dundee will forever be associated with that fruit (and jute and journalism as well as jam). So whenever marmalade is added to a Scottish recipe it is immediately labeled as "Dundee". The quantities below will serve four (unless the chops are very small or the appetites are large).
