Some days can be pretty busy. Everyday life, appointments without end. And the feeling that the day lasts much longer than usual. The sun going down at 4pm isn’t really helping either. For those days I suggest the next recipe. It is very quick and easy to make. It can be also a life saver in case you have unexpected quests! Or you just want to try something else.

Serves 4. Total time: 30min

600g smoked pork chops (Kasseler)

500g plums (fresh or in glass)

1 sprig of rosemary

1 onion

1 tbsp butter

2 chilis

1-2 tbsp balsamic vinegar

salt and pepper to taste

Preheat the oven to 200ºC (circulating air 180ºC). Cut the pork chops in 4 slices, place in a heat resistant dish with the rosemary and cook in the oven for 30min.

Melt the butter in a pot, chop the onion and chili and add to the butter. Cook until the onion is soft.

Wash the plums, remove the core and cut in halves. Add to the onion and cook together until a liquid starts to form. If it doesn’t, you can add a little bit of water. Taste with the vinegar, salt and pepper. Serve with potatoes.
