Serve immediately on a hot plate with bread sauce or mashed potato.

What each ingredient does
- Loin chop
- Provides the meat that is cooked directly over the fire, setting its texture and browning on the surface.
- Fat
- Greases the grill so the chop does not stick, and lends a little richness from its drippings.
The step that matters
Turn the chop every 2 minutes. Frequent turning on a hot, bright fire cooks the chop evenly and browns it gradually, so the outside does not char before the centre is cooked through.
