Braised Canadian Maple Mustard Pork Loin

I wouldn’t be much of a proud Canadian home chef if I didn’t make something with maple syrup on Canada Day, and so the first dish that came to mind was this absolutely delicious favourite of ours.

 A truly Canadian sauce in the making, onions sauteed in pork drippings, white wine, original dijon mustard and good quality maple syrup

Sear the pork and set aside,  sauté some chopped onion, deglaze with white wine, add equally copious anounts of dijon and good maple syrup, add the pork and juiced back in then cover and simmer until you’re ready to eat.

Brussels sprouts that have been peeled, trimmed and halved are sauteed over medium-high heat until just starting to brown, a splash of wine, some lemon zest, season, cover and simmer for ten minutes
