mazzy1, do you have any apples and sage? I'm not a big fan of gravy so I'd opt for making a simple Sage and Apple Sauce which can be quickly made in the microwave - simply peel and slice the apples and while they're cooking, very thinly slice fresh sage leaves if you have them (otherwise I guess dried sage would suffice in which case it would be best if added to the raw or half-cooked apples). When the apples are cooked stir in the fresh sage with salt and pepper to taste, and if you wish some butter to give the sauce a smooth richness. :-))

how did you cook the chops? use the juices they have made, add a little water some soy sauce for colour and thicken with a little flour and water, if you have a whisk, whisk as you add the flour and water to get rid of lumps, then you have made gravy.

Discard any oil from the pan and use the juices and bits in the frypan with a little water over heat. . sprinkle on 2 tsp of bisto, some fine chopped fresh sage leaves and a small onion diced... cook until onion softens, add a little salt and white pepper and a knob of butter. Now add half a cup of water with cornflour mixed well through and stir well over high heat until smooth gravy consistency. . You can serve lumpy like thisor use a stick blender to pulse all up... Do taste test

Just go and get a tin of baby apple, makes a great sauce.

Yup that's our standby. Or mix 2/3 apricot jam with 1/3 seedy mustard, coat cooked chops, cook briefly again to caramelise.
