Method

Preheat the grill to medium. Season the pork chops and grill for 4 minutes each side or until cooked through. Remove and rest for 2 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a frying pan, heat the olive oil and butter. Add the shallots and cook for 5 minutes, until softened. Stir in dried apricots and the sage. Cook for 3 minutes. Pour in white wine and bubble until reduced by half. Stir through the Apricot Compote, a splash of water and cook for 2 minutes more.
Heat the pack of ready-made mashed potato according to the pack instructions. Serve the pork chops with the mash, warm apricot sauce and wilted spinach, if you like.
