Pan-fried Pork Chops with Tzatziki Dip

Not in the mood to cook anything fancy over the weekend. I call it the lazy bug. Some pan-fried pork chops, homemade tzatziki dip, bulgur and some vegetables were in for a dinner plate. Nobody complained, so guess that was acceptable. ;)

Ingredients
Tzatziki Dip
300 ml of natural yoghurt 
2 cloves of minced/crushed garlic
2 tbsps of olive oil
a pinch of salt and pepper
Half a cucumber (shredded)

Bulgur
Cooking directions as stated in the package

Vegetables
Blanch the desired vegetables

Pork Chops
Few slices of pork chops
2 tbsps oil
1 meat stock cube 
1 tsp salt
3 tbsps honey


Method
  1. Make tzatziki dip as directed in the pictures.
  2. Crush n dissolve cube with oil, salt and honey in a bowl. 
  3. Mix well till combined.
  4. Marinate mixture with slices of pork chops for at least 3 hours or overnight.
  5. Pan fried each slice of pork chop till cooked. About 3 mins on each side.  This depends on the thickness of your meat.
  6. Prepare others as accordingly.
  7. Enjoy!


Strain yoghurt for a couple of hours (till it's dry)
