Sticky Glazed Pork Chops and Crispy Potatoes on One Tray

A sweet and tangy glaze of ketchup, soy, brown sugar and garlic caramelises on juicy pork chops under the broiler, while baby potatoes roast alongside on the same tray. It is a low-fuss, one-pan dinner with very little washing up.

Tips & tricks

  • Ketchup: use American-style ketchup (or the condiment called tomato sauce in some countries), not cooking tomato sauce.
  • Soy sauce: regular soy sauce, or 2 1/2 tsp light soy sauce. Avoid dark soy, which is too strong.
  • Vinegar: any clear or neutral vinegar will work; avoid balsamic.
  • Pork: any pork chop works, though bone-in stays juicier. The times above are for 200 g (7 oz) chops. For 350 g (12 oz) chops, bake for 15 minutes, then broil for about 10 minutes plus an extra minute after basting.
  • Potatoes: keep them about 3 cm / 1 1/4 inches across or smaller, or give them longer in the first roast.
  • Optional marinating: seal the pork and glaze in a zip-top bag and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. You can also freeze it in the bag; it will marinate as it thaws, then cook as above.
  • Nutrition is per serving including potatoes, using trimmed cutlets.
