Jamie Does... Andalucia



As it was a beautiful weekend, I made Jamie's Moorish Pork Chops out on the barbecue. This recipe is taken from his Jamie Does... book and from the Andalucia segment. My husband occasionally likes to "treat" me and buy me recipe books. Luckily for him, I love cooking and he loves eating!



There is a marvellous butchers on North End Road by Fulham Broadway and these delicious chops only cost me a pound each. Every time I go, there is always a massive queue but it's well worth the wait. To make this recipe, you really do need to find the biggest chops that you can lay your hands on as you need to stuff them with sherry soaked raisins for the filling.

To accompany the chops was a bean stew flavoured with rosemary from our allotment but I still found the stew to be a little bland so I melted in a few ripe tomatoes as well. I found this gave the dish the necessary balance.














Here's the dish plated up as well as a peek at the delicious sherry raisin stuffing. It really was a stunning combination of flavours!
