How to make it
- 1. Place a heavy-based frying pan, or wok, over a medium heat and toast the shelled Walnuts (chestnuts). Set them to one side.
- 2. Mix together the seeds and plenty of freshly ground black pepper, then rub the mixture all over the pork.
- 3. Heat the same pan used for the nuts, and add ½ the butter.
- 4. Gently fry the pork for four or five minutes each side, to desired doneness.
- 5. Remove from the pan and place on the serving dish. Cover with foil and keep warm.
- 6. Meanwhile steam or boil the greens until just tender, then refresh under the cold tap. Shake the colander to remove excess water then return to the pan with the remaining butter. Cook over a medium heat until the butter is foaming then set aside in a warm place.
- 7. Fry the apples in the pork pan until lightly browned and soft, adding the Walnuts (chestnuts) at the last minute and frying both together briefly.
- 8. Transfer to the serving dish. Serve each person a spoonful of the greens, followed by the fragrant pork, apples and nuts.
- Some good bread. I have a decent stash of 2009 Kiwi Zinfandel, don’t ask, so that goes with this. However, pick your own full bodied red.
