1 tbsp olive oil
4 thick British outdoor-reared pork loin steaks (about 600g/1lb 5 oz total weight)
1 onion - thinly sliced
2 large cloves garlic - thinly sliced
1 heaped tbsp finely chopped rosemary
175ml/6fl oz dry English cider
125ml/4½fl oz chicken stock
2 tsp wholegrain mustard
100ml/3½fl oz crème fraiche
Squeeze of lemon juice
3 apples - quartered
cored and cut into wedges
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
1Heat the oil in a large, non-stick sauté pan over a medium-high heat and brown the pork all over, including the rind, for 5 minutes until golden. Remove from the pan and leave to one side
2Add the onion to the pan, turn the heat down to medium-low and cook for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the garlic and 2 teaspoons of the rosemary and stir well
