      Apple Baked Pork Chops

      1 medium onion, peeled
      2 oz raisins
      7 fl oz unsweetened apple juice
      3 Tbls chopped parsley
      freshly ground pepper to taste
      4 pork loin chops, approx. 6oz. each, trimmed of fat
      2 Tbls dry white wine or cider

      Core and finely chop the apple. Finely chop the onion. Place in a saucepan with the raisins and apple juice. Simmer gently, uncovered, for 3-4 minutes until the apple begins to soften slightly.

      Remove from the heat, drain off the juices and reserve. Stir the parsley into the apple mixture with pepper to taste, then cool.

      Meanwhile, make a horizontal cut through the flesh of the chops, almost to the bone. Open out to form a pocket for the apple.

      Spoon a little of the apple mixture into the pocket of each chop. Place in a shallow flameproof dish. Mix the reserved juices with the wine or cider and pour over the chops.

      Cover with foil and bake in the oven at 350 degrees F for 45-60 minutes.
