Neck Chops with Fruit (4 people)

Neck Chops with Fruit (4 people)

Drawing of an executioner with an axe

Neck chops are an incredibly cheap cut of meat (I fed 8 people to satiation and the meat cost (2.30). They come in pain and one such pair is ample for one helping. Neck chops need a long cooking time to get them realty tender.

Things you will need: —
  • 4 neck chops - roll in wholemeal or rye flour
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 cups dried fruit (try 1 cup each of pears and peaches.)
  • ¼ cup honey
  • ½ teaspoon assorted herbs (cinnamon, cloves, ginger make a good combination)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice or vinegar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Place chops in baking dish and then in preheated oven at 350°F for two hours. (Cover top tightly.)

Sometime in 2 hours add fruit, honey, herbs, lemon juice and salt to water and simmer gently for about 5 minutes.

Drain off fat after 2 hours and then add fruit mixture. Cover and return to oven for ½hour at 400°F.

Try with brown rice and a glass of still red wine.
