Curry Pork Chops Recipe

Carmen Warren

Report

These Curry Pork Chops are a great easy meal idea for dinner that is ready in under 30 minutes! The bone in or boneless pork chops are pan-fried, giving them a golden exterior while finishing them off in the sauce means you get such juicy tender pork. The tasty curry sauce is a mixture of onions, apples, broth, and cream. All simmered together with curry powder and a pinch of sugar. This means you are entirely in control of the spice level. Choose mild or hot curry powder to suit your tastes.
