Slow Roast Pork with Potatoes Recipe
Ingredients
6 slices bacon
4 loin pork chops, 1 inch thick
4 large boiling potatoes, pared and thinly sliced
2 medium-size onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
3/4 cup dry white wine
2 cloves garlic, lightly crushed
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
Directions
1. Fry 2 slices of the bacon in a large skillet until crisp; crumble and reserve. Trim fat from chops; brown chops in bacon drippings.
2. Arrange half the potatoes in a layer in a deep baking dish or Dutch oven, preferably earthenware or enameled cast iron. Top with half the onions; sprinkle with half the salt and pepper.
3. Place chops over onions, overlapping, to form a single layer. Add remaining potatoes and onions, salt and pepper.
4. Crush caraway seeds; add to baking dish with wine and garlic. Place remaining bacon over top. Cover with a double thickness of foil, then with lid.
5. Roast in slow oven (300°) 2 1/2 hours, or until meat and potatoes are tender. Discard bacon; skim off fat, if necessary. Sprinkle with parsley and crumbled bacon. This is very good with mustard and beer.
