Method
- Cut the apples in halves, then char over high heat on all sides until tender.
- While the apples are cooking, heat a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil, then add the onion, garlic, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Sauté until onions are tender.
- Once cooled, place the charred apples in the bowl of your Kenwood food processor along with the cooked onions, a drizzle of olive oil, fennel seeds and vinegar.
- Blend until mostly smooth. Set aside.
- Lightly coat pork chops with oil, then coat well with the spice rub.
- Grill over medium-high heat until cooked through, 6-8 minutes on each side. Leave to rest for about 5 minutes.
- Spoon apple sauce onto serving plates, then place cooked pork chops on top to serve.
