Pork Chops with Creamy Mashed English Peas

I was recently inspired by a recipe created by Gino D’Acampo which he cooked on the ITV programme – This Morning while completely naked. The recipe he made looked delicious, however also very high in syns and not particularly low in calories if healthy eating and there was no way I could have made in that way. So I came up with my own, I can’t comment on what Gino’s recipe tasted like obviously. But my recipe below was delicious. It will definitely be something I will make again.

Serves 2

Extra Easy – 1/2 HEb per serving (or you can syn the laughing cow lights if you prefer)

Ingredients

4 small pork chops (all visible fat removed)

450g of fresh English peas (still in pods)

5 laughing cow lights (1 HEb)

chicken stock

Frylight or Pam spray

Method

Remove the peas from the pods, place in a colander and wash thoroughly.

Spray a frying pan over a medium heat with some Frylight or Pam spray and add your pork chops. Cooking on each side until nice and golden.

In the meantime add your peas to a frying pan, cover lightly with the stock (you don’t want them swimming in stock, you just need enough for them to cook) and place over a medium heat. simmer  for approx 5 mins (they cook pretty quick and will go a lovely bright green colour). Make sure the heat is turned to low and add the laughing cow lights one at a time, stirring as you do, so they melt into the peas. When all laughing cow lights are added, you can start to roughly mash up the peas, either with a potato masher or fork.

Serve your pork chops topped with the creamy mashed peas. I also served mine with some broccoli and Rosemary Roasted Potatoes, Carrots and Onion

Enjoy!!
