Croatian “ Samobor Pork Chops”

"This meal is from Zagreb suburb Samobor. Long time ago, Samobor was part of Napoleon’s “Iliric County” (Zagreb was in Habsburg monarchy) and after that Samobor is well known for its mustard and sausages (French recipes). This recipe is not from Napoleon time. As usual, everyone in Croatia thinks they know the best way of cooking Samobor pork chops, and this is how I make it."
