Start by preheating the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Combine the breadcrumbs, parmesan and thyme on a plate. Add the pork, then turn to coat in the breadcrumb mixture. Heat some oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Cook the pork for 2 minutes each side or until the coating is nicely golden and crisp. Transfer to a lightly greased baking tray and bake the pork for 10 minutes or until it’s cooked through.
While the chops are in the oven, cook the sweet potato in a steamer over a saucepan of simmering water for 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl once the sweet potato is tender. Add the baby broccoli to the steamer and cook for 3 minutes or until tender. Mash the sweet potato until smooth using a potato masher or fork. Season with a little salt and pepper, then stir in the vinegar until well combined.
To serve, divide the sweet potato mash, baby broccoli and pork among serving plates. If you’d like, sprinkle with some thyme sprigs and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Whip up this parmesan pork with sweet potato mash for a tasty weeknight dinner. It serves 4 people and is on the table in half an hour.
