    The US edition of the book does not show quantity of cream. It should be 1 cup.

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Lovely recipe but watch the timings for the chops. I’d say 10 mins in the oven is plenty depending on the thickness of the chops.

    Delicious and very quick

    Agree with everyone that this is an easy and tasty dinner. I served it with polenta and a green salad.

    Love this recipe. So easy and so flavorful! We've made it many times.

    Stirring some cooked gnocchi through the finished sauce acts as a perfect accompaniment! Delicious! Next time I make it, am tempted to throw in a small handful of shredded tarragon to add a slightly fresh note. But lovely just as it is.

    Delicious recipe which can handle additions well. Added reconstituted chopped dry wild mushrooms and garlic with the vermouth. Although I did use the full cream, I may try milk or as another person mentioned, yogurt next time to cut back on fat. Quick to make too.

    I'll add my praise for this recipe. A quick, easy mid week dish with great flavour with store cupboard ingredients.

  • Smokeydoke on May 05, 2017

    Delicious and truly simple! It's made with few ingredients that are pantry staples in my house and it's very quick. I used pork loin instead of pork chops and served over rice. It was an easy weekday meal and definitely a repeater. Photo included.

    I assumed 1 cup of heavy cream, as the recipe didn't state. Turned out wonderful. My husband and I were thrilled with this dish!

    I subbed Greek yogurt for the heavy cream, resulting in a thicker sauce but no less flavorful. Simple and delicious!

    Hubs, son and I all agreed this is one I need to make again. Delicious! Chops are browned then placed in oven to finish cooking. The fat is drained and chops moved to a plate while you make the sauce which consists of Dry Vermouth, Dijon, heavy cream and capers.
