Pork Neck Chop with Potatoes and Vegetables

Nakkekoteletter med kartofler og grøntsager

The Pork Neck Chop is one the most flavourful cuts of pork and this cut of meat is the foundation of a wonderful Danish recipe. The neck chop is always very tender and full of flavour. Unfortunately every country has their only cultural practices in regards to carving meat so a true Neck Chop is usually not available in the USA, UK, Canada and Australia. If you would still like to try this recipe we recommend you use a Pork Rib Roast (UK) or a Pork Shoulder (Pork Butt) (USA).

Roasting the potatoes and vegetables together with the pork results in a mouth watering, wonderful dining experience.

• 2,5 pound potatoes
