Pork parcels (marguerite patten)

2 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 British pork loin chops
3 ounces Courgettes, unpeeled
1 small Cooking apple, peeled
2 mediums Tomatoes, skinned
2 teaspoons Tomato puree
1 teaspoon Chopped fresh sage or
½ teaspoon Dried sage
Salt and black pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F, Gas Mark 4. Cut 2 squares of foil, suffciently large to envelop the meat and other ingredients. Cut away any surplus fat from the pork, but leave a little to give flavour to the food. Thinly slice the courgettes, chop the apple and chop the tomatoes. Mix the courgettes, apple, tomatoes, tomato puree and sage together, season to taste. Put half the tomato mixture and a chop on each piece of foil, wrap this loosely, but securely, round the food to make 2 parcels. Stand in a roasting tin, in case any juice seeps out and cook for 55 minutes. Serve with jacket or boiled potatoes and a green vegetable.
