How to be a Domestic Goddess... and have dinner with one

Since I'm single and usually cook for myself at times I always buy the ingredients only when I want to cook and then eat them. I don't usually have a cupboard of goodies or a pantry to keep my foodies as I usually finish them up after 2-3 hours after buying them. I know it sounds hefty but I only eat for myself and sometimes a couple of close friends and they don't mind taking some extra time in the supermarket to buy the stuff that I need.

Usually in the supermarket I tend myself to focus on the things I need and avoid shilly-shallying around the aisles and buying stuff I might not eat and leave it on the table untouched and realize they have surpassed their expiration, and that is a waste of money. With that I get the stuff that I think is easy to prepare and easy to finish yet provided the warmth and comfort of eating and well in the unwinding part of the day you do not want to slave in the kitchen. This dinner made for one if you're greedy or two if you're not feeling selfish.

What I usually buy:

2 Pork chops, approximately 450 grams
Grainy mustard, or just the regular mustard
Cider, dryish taste
All purpose cream

For the health conscious cut off the fat or the rind and put them in a freezer bag and bash them. I do not harbor any ill will on these chops, the reason why I bash them is to make them thinner so they cook quicker. Fry them with some garlic-infused oil and give them five minutes a side or until you feel that they are cooked. Now, the aforementioned sauce. Keep the leftover juices that was on the frying pan that cooked the pork chops, de-glaze the pan with the cider allowing those meaty juices to meld with the cider. Add in the grainy mustard as I really like the texture it give, go ahead and use regular mustard the graininess is all for preference and taste. Add in the cream and mix it altogether, in mere moments the sauce is ready and simply decant the sauce onto the pork chops as the creaminess of the sauce compliments the tender meat. Throw in some steamed rice or some potatoes. Delish!
