Pork with monkey gland sauce

Loading

Many South Africans would say that you can’t have a braai (South African barbecue) without monkey gland sauce, a sweet and tangy sauce that goes perfectly with grilled meats.

Ingredients

For the monkey gland sauce

For the pork chops

Method

  1. For the monkey gland sauce, add the oil and onions to a pan and fry over a medium heat until softened. Add the garlic and ginger and fry for another 5 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the brandy. Add the rest of the ingredients for the sauce and cook for 30 minutes over a gentle heat.

  2. For the pork chops, preheat a barbecue to hot. Season each pork chop generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper and then cook on the barbecue for 7–8 minutes on each side (or use a griddle pan). Remove the chops from the barbecue using tongs and leave, covered, to rest in a wam place for another 8 minutes.

  3. To serve, glaze the pork chops with the monkey gland sauce and garnish with the pickled mustard seeds, garlic chives, a few coriander leaves

Recipe Tips

Reserve any remaining monkey gland sauce that isn't served with the pork to use as a marinade or dipping sauce in other recipes.
