This has to be my favourite meal, after a very long day at
The London Clothes Show, I was so pleased to come home to some real food, you can't beat home cooking!
Apologies for the insipid looking photo, sometimes they just turn out like that, but the flavours of the veggies & wine mixed with the pork are wonderful!
