Pork chops! Not had them for ages! My favourite way of cooking them is to put them into a baking dish and pour over a jar of Sharwoods (I think) Hoi Sin & Spring Onion sauce. Cook at GM 7 for about 40 minutes. Nice served with white rice and the remaining sauce.

Speaking of rice, if Blighter is interested this is how I cook mine. Wash the rice in cold water to remove the excess starch then bung it into a suacepan with twice the volume of water as rice. So if you used a cup of rice use 2 cups of water (a cup of rice is a massive amount - experiment with amounts until you get the portion size right but I find that about 1/3 a cup fo rice is good for me). Whack on the heat until the water boils then let it boil rapidly for a minute. Put the lid on the saucepan (it needs to be a tight fitting lid), turn the heat off and leave for about 30-35 minutes without taking the lid off. Net result is nicely cooked fluffy rice that doesn't stick.

Don't be tempted to add salt because that makes the rice quite tough.
