Ingredients

3 large thick pork chops, trimmed of all fat
1 large onion, chopped
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1 pound cabbage, coarsely shredded
2 large apples, unpeeled and diced
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon ground coriander seed
1/2 cup dry red wine
2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

In hot skillet, brown chops in their fat. Drain excess.
Add onion and garlic and saute until onions are soft.
Add cabbage, apples, ginger, coriander, wine, lemon rind and pepper. Cover and cook over medium heat 15 minutes. Stir in cabbage. Cook 5 minutes more, stirring occasionally.
At this point you may choose to freeze the dish. If not continue cooking the chops 10 to 15 minutes more until done. If the dish is frozen, defrost to serve and cook chops over low heat until done and heated through.
While chops are cooking prepare brussels sprouts and pasta. Allow 2 ounces of rotini or other spiral macaroni per serving.
