This dish turned out great...full of flavor and the meat was juicy. The sauce was sweet from the apricots and earthy from the cumin...delicious! I doubled the recipe to use 4 chops and 1 cup of shallots sure seemed like a lot! It didn't taste bad, in fact it gave the sauce texture. I would make this dish again for a special occasion but not for a regular week night meal, it wasn't hard, but definitely not a quickie.

I can't believe how flavorful this dish tastes although the only seasoning used is curry and a little salt and pepper. I followed this recipe as written except used campari tomatoes instead of plum. The recipe was fairly easy to make and can be easily converted to a main dish by adding chicken. Everyone enjoyed and thought it tasted great except the kids complained that it was a tad too spicy.
