How to Make Apple Onion Sauce For Pork

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 2 pounds peeled and sliced apples and 1 large onion, thinly sliced. Cook until softened and glossy, about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Stir in 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Reduce heat to very low, cover, and cook for 30 minutes, stirring frequently, until apples are almost tender.
  5. Stir in 2 tablespoons dry sherry (optional).
  6. Continue cooking, uncovered, until the mixture is very soft and the sauce has thickened slightly, about 5-10 minutes more.
  7. Carefully transfer the mixture to a food processor. Pulse on and off until the sauce is smooth but not completely pureed. Avoid over-processing.
  8. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add a teaspoon or two of Dijon mustard for extra zing (optional).
  9. Serve warm over your favorite pork dish.
