Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 boneless pork chops
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 large clove garlic, minced
¼ cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
5 fresh plums, pitted and coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season pork chops with salt and pepper; cook in the hot oil until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Remove pork chops to a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium; cook and stir the garlic in the skillet just until fragrant, 10 to 20 seconds. Pour in the soy sauce, red wine vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, and cloves; bring to a boil. Stir the mixture until the brown sugar dissolves; add the plums. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer the mixture until the sauce has thickened and the plums are very soft, about 45 minutes. Mash the plums with a potato masher to an applesauce-like texture. Place the pork chops back into the pan and cook in the sauce until no longer pink in the middle, 10 to 15 minutes. A meat thermometer inserted into the middle of a chop should read 145 degrees (63 degrees C).

PORK CHOPS WITH SALTED PLUMS



Pork Chops With Salted Plums image

This weeknight affair pairs savory pork with a sweet-and-sour mixture of sliced plums and red onions. When a recipe has so few ingredients, it's important that they be of the highest quality possible. The pork chops here will deliver most of the fat, so make sure they're well marbled (bone-in loin or rib chops both work). As for the plums, this is one of the rare occasions in which underripe is preferred to perfectly ripe, so they maintain texture after they get briefly tossed in the skillet, and also deliver plenty of acidity for the pan sauce.

Provided by Alison Roman

Categories     dinner, quick, weekday, meat, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 bone-in pork chops (1 1/4- to 1 1/2-inch thick, about 1 1/2 pounds total)
Kosher salt and ground pepper
1 pound medium plums, pitted and sliced
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup unseasoned rice wine vinegar or fresh lime juice, plus more as needed
1/2 teaspoon fish sauce (optional)
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 cup fresh mint leaves
Olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Season pork with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Combine the plums and onion in a medium bowl along with vinegar and fish sauce, if using. Season with salt and pepper and try a plum; they should be relatively tangy and salty. Add more vinegar or salt, if needed, and set aside.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork chops and cook, without moving, until well browned on one side, 4 to 6 minutes. Flip chops and cook until well browned on the other side, another 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer pork chops to a cutting board to rest. Add plum and onion mixture to the skillet and remove from heat. Give everything a toss, just to deglaze the skillet and scrape up any of those browned bits, slightly wilting the onion and letting some of those plum juices run free.
  • Slice pork chops to your desired thickness and transfer to a large serving platter. Scatter with plum mixture, top with mint and give everything a drizzle of olive oil before serving.

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 2h25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

about 1.6kg/3lb 8oz pork shoulder
5 tbsp rice wine
5 tbsp light soy sauce for flavour, 1 tbsp dark for colour
generous thumb-size piece fresh root ginger
5 garlic cloves
1 red chilli , deseeded and finely chopped
2 tbsp vegetable oil
bunch spring onions , finely sliced
2 star anise
1 ½ tsp five-spice powder
1 cinnamon stick
2 tbsp sugar , any type
1 tbsp tomato purée
500ml chicken stock
6 ripe plums , halved and stoned

Steps:

  • Cut the pork into big pieces about the length of your thumb and twice as wide. Put into a bowl or food bag, and add the wine, soy sauces, half the ginger, half the garlic and half the chilli. Marinate for at least 1 hr or up to 24 hrs.
  • Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3, then heat the oil in a large casserole. Tip in half the spring onions, remaining ginger and garlic, the star anise, five-spice powder and cinnamon. Fry gently until fragrant and soft. Stir in the sugar, turn up the heat, then lift the pork from the marinade and turn in the oniony mix for about 3 mins until the meat is just sealed but not browned. Tip in the marinade, tomato purée and stock, give it a stir, cover, then braise in the oven for 2 hrs.
  • After the first hr is up, add the plums to the pan. Take the lid off and carry on the cooking, uncovered. The meat should be completely tender, turning golden brown where it breaks the surface of the sauce. Spoon off any excess fat from the surface, then scoop the meat and plums carefully from the pan with a slotted spoon. Turn up the heat and boil the sauce for 5-10 mins until reduced and slightly syrupy. Return everything to the pan, gently warm through, then scatter the rest of the spring onions over the top to serve.

Categories     Pork

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb black plums (4-6 plums) or 1 lb red plum, pitted and cut into sixths (4-6 plums)
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, plus more for garnish
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
6 tablespoons turbinado sugar or 6 tablespoons white sugar, divided
12 black peppercorns, crushed
1 vanilla beans, split or 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1 lb pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat
1/2 teaspoon peppercorn
1/8 teaspoon marjoram
1/8 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 pinch garlic powder

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Trim the pork tenderloin of any excess fat. Use a mortar and pestle to crush the peppercorns, marjoram, rosemary and garlic powder together. Sprinkle the spices around the meat and wrap in plastic wrap. Set aside for up to 15 minutes. (If you are going to let this rest longer, place in fridge and remove 15 minutes before cooking.).
  • To roast plums, place the fruit skin side to the bottom of the pan and leaves from 2 rosemary sprigs in an 8-inch-square baking dish.
  • Whisk water, balsamic vinegar, 4 tablespoons sugar and peppercorns in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean; add the seeds and bean to the vinegar mixture. Pour the mixture over the plums. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons (turbinado or white) sugar.
  • Roast the plums, uncovered, until tender and beginning to break down, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Once the meat has sat for 15 minutes, heat olive oil in a cast iron skillet (or another oven proof pan). Cook the meat for 5-6 minutes turning so that all sides of the tenderloin are browned. Place skillet in the oven and cook until the meat reaches 155 degrees, about 12-15 minutes. Once done, remove the pork from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes. (In that time the meat will reach the desired 160 degrees.).
  • Once the plums are done roasting, discard the rosemary and the vanilla bean. Strain the roasting liquid into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook until reduced to 1/2 cup, 6 to 8 minutes. Whilst reducing the sauce tent the plums with foil over the roasting pan. (I would suggest not starting your reduction until the meat is cooked and resting.).
  • After the meat has rested, carve on the diagonal into slices about 1/4 to 3/8 inch thick.
  • To serve place a quarter of plums onto the plate. Place the pork on top and drizzle with the balsamic reduction. Garnish with additional rosemary if desired.

ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH FRESH PLUM SAUCE



Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Fresh Plum Sauce image

When shopping for this recipe be sure to choose plums (or any other stone fruit) that are fairly firm so they keep their shape after roasting. You know that selfish jerk that has to feel-up every piece of fruit before deciding on one? This time, be that jerk.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Pork     Pork Tenderloin Recipes

Time 1h

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pork tenderloin
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 red onion, sliced
2 shallots, sliced
3 fresh thyme sprigs, or more to taste
2 firm plums, pitted and each cut into 4 wedges
1 cup water
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon cold butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Generously season pork tenderloin with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat oil in a large, oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Cook tenderloin until browned on all sides, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer tenderloin to a plate.
  • Saute onion with a pinch of salt in the same skillet until just softening, 3 to 5 minutes. Add shallots, reduce heat to medium, and cook and stir until shallots and onion are golden brown and caramelized, about 10 minutes.
  • Stir thyme into onion mixture; place tenderloin over onion mixture, and set plum quarters, skin-side down, around pork tenderloin. Transfer skillet to preheated oven.
  • Cook until pork is slightly pink in the center, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Transfer pork and plums to a plate.
  • Place skillet over medium-high heat and pour water and balsamic vinegar into onion mixture. Bring mixture to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook and stir until liquid is reduced by half, 5 to 10 minutes; remove from heat. Whisk butter into mixture until melted and sauce is shiny. Pour sauce over pork and plums.

Categories     Fruit     Garlic     Ginger     Pork     Sauté     Dinner     Plum     Meat     Spice     Fall     Summer     Party     Gourmet     Dairy Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 pound Italian prune plums
1 large garlic clove
4 pork chops (each about 1 inch thick)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated peeled fresh gingerroot
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons Sherry vinegar or red-wine vinegrar
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
2 whole star anise or 1/2 teaspoon anise seeds
Garnish: chopped scallion and plum slices

Steps:

  • Quarter and pit plums and mince garlic. Pat pork chops dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. In a 12-inch heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and brown pork chops about 2 minutes on each side, transferring to a plate. Add garlic and gingerroot to skillet and sauté, stirring constantly, 30 seconds. Stir in soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, and anise and bring to a simmer. Return pork chops to skillet and arrange plums around them. Simmer mixture, covered, over moderately low heat 50 minutes, or until meat is very tender. Transfer chops to a platter and, if necessary, simmer sauce, uncovered, until thickened slightly. Discard star anise, if used. Pour sauce over chops and garnish with scallion and plum.

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 145°F (63°C).
  • For a crispier texture, sear the pork in a hot skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown on all sides before adding the sauce.
  • If the sauce becomes too thick, add a little water or chicken broth to thin it out.
  • Serve the pork and plums with rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes.
  • For a more flavorful sauce, use a combination of soy sauce, rice vinegar, and hoisin sauce.
  • If you don't have plum sauce, you can substitute apricot or peach preserves.
  • To add a bit of heat to the dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a drizzle of Sriracha sauce.
  • For a vegetarian version of this dish, replace the pork with tofu or tempeh.

Conclusion:

Sautéed pork and plums is a quick and easy dish that is bursting with flavor. It is a great weeknight meal that can be made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand. The pork is tender and juicy, the plums are sweet and tangy, and the sauce is savory and flavorful. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
