Instructions
Sous vide pork chops
- Season your meat with salt and pepper, and place each piece in a sous vide bag.
- Cook the meat in a sous vide for 3 hours at 58 degrees Celsius (136 degrees Fahrenheit).
- Then remove the meat from the water bath and from the bags. Dry it well with a kitchen towel, and sear it in a pan with ghee. Here is the recipe for ghee. It can also be substituted with a mix of oil and butter.
Pommes Anna - a quick version
- Preheat your oven to 220 degrees Celsius (428 degrees Fahrenheit).
- Peel the potatoes, slice them thin on a mandoline slicer, and rinse them in cold water.
- Layer the potatoes with melted butter, salt, pepper, and dried thyme. We use a bread loaf pan here, but you can use any form you prefer. Find something to use as a weight when baking them in the oven.
- Bake your Pommes Anna under aluminum foil and weight for 30 minutes at 220 degrees Celsius (428 degrees Fahrenheit).
- Normally, you would refrigerate your Pommes Anna until the next day - but since this is a quick version, it needs further baking.
- Remove the aluminum foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes at 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit) without weight.
- Cut your Pommes Anna into appropriate sizes.
Thyme Glaze
- Clean and finely chop onions and garlic. Take out a heavy-bottomed pot and sauté both in neutral-tasting oil until soft and translucent.
- Add red wine and thyme sprigs and let it simmer for 20 minutes.
- Add 4 dl of broth. If you have drippings, trimmings, or other stock, feel free to add those as well.
- Add a bit of lemon juice and vinegar and season with dried thyme.
- When your sauce has reduced to 1-2 dl, it should be finished with cold butter cut into cubes.
- Ensure the sauce is boiling vigorously, and that the butter comes straight from the refrigerator. It is crucial to hit the right temperatures and whisk vigorously.
- Add a piece of butter at a time while whisking vigorously until the sauce reaches the desired thickness. There should be plenty of butter in it.
- Finally, assemble your dish and serve it to your guests.
