Onion Applesauce

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup julienne onions
1 cup peeled and coarsely chopped Granny Smith apples
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 turns fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup Calvados
2 cups chicken stock

Instructions

In a sauté pan, heat the olive oil. When the oil is hot, sauté the onions for 3-4 minutes, or until lightly caramelized. Add the apples, garlic, salt and pepper and continue sautéing for 1 minute. Stir in the stock. Bring the liquid up to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cook the mixture for 20 minutes. Adjust the seasonings if needed. Slice the pork roulade into 1 1/2 inch slices. Mound the potatoes in the center of the platter. Arrange the roulades pieces around the potatoes. Spoon the garlic reduction over the roulades. Place a tablespoon of the applesauce on top of each roulade. Pile the fried parsnips in the center of the potatoes. Garnish with the chives.
