I tried to make the Mustard Pork Chops that Nigella Lawson did on Monday's Nigella Express but I must have got the proportions wrong. She didn't give any proportions on the show.
Has anyone made this with success or got the book and can check for me please?
thanks

Pork chop in cider and mustard sauce served with gnocchi
-2 pork chops boned-in, put in plastic bag, use rolling pin to pound the meat (apparently not for tenderizing purposes but just to make it thinner and thus easier to cook), heat oil and pan-fry for 5 mins each side, remove from pan and put on plate
-to make the sauce: keep pork juice in pan, add cider, 1 full tsp grain mustard, cream, stir well; when done pour some on top of the pork chops
-cook gnocchi in boiling water for 5 mins until they float on top of water, then put into pan to coat with remaining sauce and serve
this was all i could find online(not on the bbc site) is this a different one?0 -

I made this on Friday night after having seen Nigella make it on the show I didn't follow any measures just did it by eye and it turned out fine, it was really delicious. I make enough for two and put anout three heaped teaspoons of mustard in but we like our food with a kick. I also served it with some fine green beans for one of our five a day

Keep it bubbling away to reduce it, before adding the cream. Although, it becomes less of an "express" :rotfl:Warning ..... I'm a peri-menopausal axe-wielding maniac0 -
I made it on Sat and it was fab, but I did it with a bit of pork fillet I had in freezer, and cut little round slices. I saw that she snuggled down to eat it with a fork. Yeah right. No chance you could eat a bone-in pork chop with a fork, tho you can with pork fillet !0

I've just succumbed to temptation and bought the book (half-price in WHSmith). I want to make everything in it.0

I made this recipe using the following measurements & it tasted divine:
Pork Chops - Nigella suggested 2, but I used 4 & there was plenty of sauce to serve this many.
1 pack gnocchi (again - Nigella used a half pack when only serving herself, but a whole pack did the four of us).
1 generous tablespoon of Grain Mustard.
200ml Cider.
50mk Double Cream.
Hammer out pork chop & fry off for 5 mins on each side, set aside on a plate.
Add cider to pan with pork juices still in & de-glaze the pan (a chef's term for getting all the crispy tasty bits off the bottom of the pan). Add the mustard & cook for a minute. Add the cream & cook for a minute more to reduce slightly.
Whilst this is all going on, cook the gnocchi in a pan of boiling salted water until the gnocchi rise to the top, about 2 - 3 mins.
Put the chops on warmed plates, spoon over some of the mustard sauce.
Drain the gnocchi & add to the mustard sauce pan & stir to coat it all then serve.
Enjoy!0
