About

This dish just looks after itself. Use big, good-quality chops. As a Rasta I don’t eat pork, but here is a recipe for you as it is a traditional Caribbean ingredient - in fact, the old-school way is to make jerk pork rather than jerk chicken.

Ingredients

2 tbsp sunflower or groundnut oil
salt and pepper
4 big pork loin chops

Method

Preheat the oven to 160°C/325°F/gas mark 3.
Wash the meat and pat it dry with kitchen paper. Heat the oil in a frying pan, season the chops and brown them on both sides. Put them in an ovenproof dish in which they can lie in a single layer.
