    Mm! I like Pork and Ginger as a combination…but then love ginger and Pork… so I might jsut add ginger to this one.

    I have a friend who says of pigs: I love pigs, they are so intelligent. On top of that they are great to eat.
    Echoes my feelings precisley.

    Pigs wallow in mud, and yet they are eaten? More brandy please– that way I don’t know what I’m eating.

    Ooh love the sound of this. A little hot to be casseroling but I can do a mean pork fillet in the frypan with a brandy cream sauce!

    Maynard – Pigs wallow if allowed. I once had a holiday on a pig farm in Denmark, there was no mud and no smell!

    Baino – Save the recipe for the cooler days.

    Hubby is quite the cook so I think this one will show up on our table soon. It sounds delicious and not difficult to do. Thank you for sharing.
