Classic pairings of apple and pork get a boost of springtime joy
It’s fair to say that the sauce is the star of this Pork Chop Celeriac Remoulade and Apple Date Sauce. Of course, a buttered pork chop is undeniably succulent and the ‘draw’ of the recipe, but this intensely thick, sweet and savoury apple-date sauce adds an element of seduction with its almost caramel-like flavour.
Fusion celeriac remoulade
Remoulade’s earthy flavour makes it a refreshing alternative to potatoes or pasta, and this version has a bit more spice than the original. Soy sauce and green chilli add a bit of spice and an Asian flavour that complements the sweetness of the apple sauce.
Sweet and Savoury Apple Date Sauce
A winning combination of apples, Medjool dates, ginger and a touch of butter. Oven-roasted apples add a rich caramel flavour that develops when mixed with creamy, fudge-like Medjool dates. Ginger adds a lovely kick that takes you from sweet to savoury. It takes just 30 minutes to make a batch and can be used in a variety of sweet and savoury dishes..
