Pork chops with gin marinade by Lauraine Jacobs | Cuisine issue #102

They can be cooked on a grill plate or the barbecue, and brushed with the marinade during the cooking.
6 pork chops
12 crushed juniper berries
1 teaspoon allspice
2 sprigs thyme, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leafed parsley
1 finely chopped shallot
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons gin
juice and zest of 1 orange
salt and freshly ground black pepper
olive oil for grilling
fresh green beans, baby turnips and beetroot to serve
Pat the pork chops dry and trim off any excess fat. Mix all the remaining ingredients together in a shallow dish, and place the pork chops in this mixture to marinate for at least an hour.
Heat the barbecue or a ridged grill pan and brush lightly with olive oil. Cook chops over low to medium heat, basting occasionally with the marinade, until the meat is cooked through but still juicy (about 6 minutes each side).
Serve with a fresh green bean salad tossed with a few baby turnips and beetroot and dressed with orange juice and olive oil.
How it turned out...

Watching Rambo 3. 1 part kitsch, 1 part excruciating, 1 part ironic in terms of modern day Afghanistan.
I also keep thinking of Borat...
IRB doing the 2015 rugby world cup draw in 2012 http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/all-blacks/8031537/All-Blacks-avoid-2015-World-Cup-pool-of-death
Yeah the whole 12 teams auto qualifying just makes it a joke. Previous winner getting auto qualifying I can understand, would also mean that there would be more games of the top level teams against mid level teams and competition for places. So many auto places is just crap.
Flying into Wgtn tonight. Not THE roughest landing but still enough for me to be mentally hurling into the barf bags and relieved to be on terra firma.
After that we waited on the tarmac for ages for a gate to come free (ended disembarking at the "international" terminal.
Good to be home.

Been away mate?
Christchurch. Seems like another world.
Just a rather hairy experience coming into Wgtn last night and then waiting on the tarmac for ages before being allowed to disembark.
Wellington hardly has an 'international terminal' - it's all one!
Ahead of the times if the new Christchurch "combined" terminal is the future as the Stuff article said :P

"Lisanne Beck and Simon Murphy have been found guilty of outraging public decency at the Old Bailey in London after upsetting fans with a public display of oral sex at the BBC Radio 2 gig, which also featured performances by Chrissie Hynde, Blondie and ELO."
Really didn't need to know that thanks media.
The way that reads is that Chrissie had a boof at the concert. What person was on the receiving of ELO. There's about 10 people in the band.
how much did it cost for tickets in the splash zone?
