Pork and apples in a ginger cream sauce


Pork
  • 4 country style pork ribs
  • 2 tbs buttermilk 
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 2 tsp dried thyme
  • salt and pepper
  • butter
Sauce:
  • 1 cup apple juice that has chilled overnight with pieces of ginger root in it-remove the ginger root
  • 1 tbs grated ginger
  • 1 tsp stone ground mustard
  • juice of 1 orange
  • 1 apple-diced
  • 1/4 cup cream

Start by simmering all the ingredients except the cream over medium heat in a small saucepan. Then begin working on breading the pork. Start by mixing the breadcrumbs, thyme, salt and pepper. Then coat the pork in buttermilk and dredge it in the brad crumb mixture. Melt some butter in a pan over medium heat and when it starts to sizzle, add the breaded pork. Sear on each side then reduce the heat a bit and put a lid on. Cook till the pork is done (about 5-7 minutes). 

The sauce should have reduced my at least half by now. Make sure it doesn't go much past this. Add in the cream and make sure it is heated through.  

Serve over rice or quinoa with the sauce, meat, and a green vegetable like roasted asparagus or steamed green beans.
