OMG and he even documented with photos! P.S. I adore the shallot butter! Touché Forest!
Cooking by myself was a bit stressful. I was so nervous that the side dishes and the pork would finish at different times.
My biggest thrill was finally moving up to the big leagues and getting to chop some stuff.
These look so delicious! My husband would have asked at least 30 questions while making these. Haha.
We love chops and this to me is a very classic way to fix them...
