    Pork and cider is a classic Normandy combination, and there are several variations. The simplest is pork chops fried with chopped shallots and then finished with a pint of Normandy cider. Less expensive is a casserole of pork, as you can use a cheaper cut such as shoulder or even belly of pork rashers and it can be bulked out with a thick sauce.

    Peel and chop an onion and a couple of cloves of garlic. Peel an eating apple and slice it very thinly.

    Fry the pieces of pork in a little oil until they are lightly browned, then add the chopped onion and garlic and soften them. Stir in the chopped apple and a teaspoonful of Dijon mustard. Add half a pint or so of cider, cover and simmer gently for an hour on a low heat.
