Pork Chops in a Porcini Gravy

I made this recipe recently with pork chops then with steaks both equally delicious and super easy to make. The Porcini mushrooms add a rich and meaty flavor to the dish and really make a special gravy. So next time you walk past the dried mushrooms be sure to put a pack in the shopping cart :-)

Ingredients:

• one small pack of porcini mushrooms (a wild Italian mushroom)
• 2 medium pork chops
• about a cup of bisto gravy (a classic British gravy) or any desired gravy
• 1/2  a chopped red onion
• 4 cloves of chopped garlic

Method:

1. soak the porcini mushrooms in water for about 20 minutes
2. saute the onion and garlic in olive oil for 5 minutes then add the pork chops to brown 
3. cook the pork for 7-10 minutes then add a 1-2 cups of gravy and the porcini mushrooms and simmer for another 10 minutes
4. serve with mashed potatoes and any desired vegetables
5. aw comfort food at its best
