Succulent Pork Chop Homemade Style

I like to eat pork chops, like my (late) father, it is also one of his favorite food. But I usually don't cook them as I am worried that the cut of meat may turn out to be like "rubber tires" after cooking. 

Homemade pork chop with mixed vege and chicken teriyaki stick

But the latest finding at this warehouse for MMMMM Meat Shop at 6 Chin Bee Crescent really adds to my delight! I bought this 'black pork' in pack of 2 slices (costs about $10 each) and the fragrant and texture is just superb. Yes, black pork comes from black pigs from Taiwan. Interesting right? OK here's the recipe:

Step 1: Marinate pork chop

• generous pinch of salt and fine white pepper
• light sauce (tiger brand)
• dash of sesame oil
• leave for about 15 minutes
• herbs (optional)

Step 2: Cook meat while maintaining tender texture and juiciness

• heat pan and add 2 tbs olive oil till hot
• add pork chop pan-fry till slightly golden brown both sides (do not fully cook meat)
• scoop up meat and place in an aluminum foil sheet
• close the aluminum sheet and leaving some gap for heat to further brown exposed surface
• turn oven heat to about 200degrees for about 10 mins.
• 3-4 slices of pork chop and be stacked together in a foil)

Step 3: Stir fry mixed vegetables

2 large pieces of  zucchini (yellow and green)

1 large brocoli

carrots

• Wash and cut vege into 2 inch cubes
• blanch vege into hot water for faster cooking time.
• heat wok/pan, add 1 tbs vege/olive oil and a clove of garlic
• add vege and some water.
• 1 tbs oyster sauce (Lee Kum Kee) or  1 tsp fish soy sauce (knife brand) can be added
• plate when ready on to a slice of pork shop.

OPTION:

Ready-madeTeriyaki chicken stick is available at the MMM warehouse outlet at $1.90 for 4 sticks. Taste quite good. My daugther said that the canteen at her school sells a similar stick at $1 each. 

To prepare, wrap a bunch of them with aluminum foil and tuck them into the oven at about 200 degrees for about 10 minutes.  

Desert:

I was so blessed, my colleague bought me few tubs of ice cream and I managed to find some left over waffles from the freezer.

We had crispy warm waffle topped with durian flavored ice-cream!!!

Mmmmmmm... happy and satisfied meal!!

Enjoy!! Happy dining !
