  1. 1

    Wash and peel the carrots and cut them into sticks. Wash marjoram, parsley and chives and chop them finely, except for a little bit for the garnish. Heat the oil in a large pan and fry the chops in it for about 6 minutes on each side.

    Season with salt, pepper and marjoram and remove from the pan. Add brandy, 1/8 litre water and white wine and let it boil down a bit. Crumble half of the gorgonzola into the sauce and melt in it.

  3. 3

    Add the sauce thickener and bring the sauce to the boil again. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Place the chops in an ovenproof dish, pour some sauce over them and sprinkle with the remaining gorgonzola.

  4. 4

    Bake in the preheated oven (electric oven: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for approx. 10 minutes. Steam carrots in little boiling salted water for 10-15 minutes. For the puree, boil 375 ml water and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a pot.
