FAST, COMPLETE DINNERS FOR TWO...PREPARED IN ONE PRESSURE COOKER
(Page 2 of 3)
Spread the bran flakes (or bread crumbs) evenly on a dinner
plate. Beat the egg lightly with 1-1/2 tablespoons of the
milk and pour the mixture onto a second platter. Trim any
excess fat from the pork chops, add salt and pepper, and
press them firmly into the bran flakes to coat both sides
and the edges. Cover them similarly with the egg-milk
mixture, then again with the bran until they have a thick
crust. (If the egg needs thinning, add the remaining milk.)

Heat the pressure cooker (without its base rack) to
medium-high frying temperature, add three tablespoons of
butter and-when it's hot-quickly sauce the pork chops until
they're nicely browned. Then carefully lift out the meat,
add the remaining butter to the pot, and lightly brown the
potato slices and carrots, seasoning with salt and pepper
to taste. When they're done, turn off the heat, spread the
vegetables in an even layer on the bottom of the cooker,
pour the wine over them and place the pork chops on top.
Position the base rack on the meat. Put the cauliflowerets
(seasoned lightly) into a small, open dish, sprinkle on
half the grated cheese, and place the dish in the pot. Put
the four figs directly on the base rack, add the apples
(right side up), and fasten the lid on the cooker. Bring
the pressure up to 15 pounds and cook for exactly five
minutes.
When the time's up, remove the pot from the heat and reduce
the pressure immediately. Unwrap the apples, dribble a
tablespoon of maple syrup over each one, and let them cool
until you're ready for dessert. Serve up the pork chops
with the potatoes, carrots, figs, and cheesed cauliflower.
Then scrape the bottom of the cooker to incorporate the
brown drippings into the natural wine sauce, and spoon the
liquid over the meat. Finish up with a sprinkle of grated
cheese over the entire main dish.
