Name: Five - Fragrance Pork Chops
Ingredients: 6 Pork chops, bone in, cut in; Half,pound with back edge of cleaver.; 1 tb Brown sugar; 1/2 ts Five spice fragrance powder; 1/2 ts Finely minced fresh ginger; 1/4 c Black soy sauce; 1 tb Rice wine or dry sherry; 2 Scallions, finely minced, include some of the green.

For my own part, I have never ceased to rejoice that God has appointed me to such an office. People talk of the sacrifice I have made in spending so much of my life in Africa. Is that a sacrifice which brings its own blest reward in healthful activity, the consciousness of doing good, peace of mind, and a bright hope of a glorious destiny hereafter? Away with the word sacrifice. Say rather it is a privilege. Anxiety, sickness, suffering, or danger, now and then, with a foregoing of the common conveniences and charities of this life, may make us pause, and cause the spirit to waver, and the soul to sink; but let this only be for a moment. All these are nothing when compared with the glory which shall be revealed in and for us. I never made a sacrifice.

INSTRUCTIONS

MARINADE
Marinade: Mix the marinade ingredients in a bowl; marinate chops for at
least 30 minutes turn from time to time.
Lightly dredge the marinated pork chops in 1/4 cup cornstarch. Heat oil in
a large skillet. Pan-fry chops, a few at a time, until they are golden
brown. Drain on paper towels.
Serve hot.

Suzy's Hint: I like to use a plastic zip-type bag for marinating. It's
easier to turn the entire bag from side to side then using a bowl and
turning the meat piece by piece. It also keeps the marinade odor out of the
refrigerator...especially when you use a marinade with garlic.
Additionally, the bag takes up less shelf space than a bowl.
